Model M·VERA® PPH and M·VERA® PPC -Biomass-balanced Polypropylen Compounds
BIO-FED has expanded its portfolio with ISCC PLUS and REDcert² sustainable certified M·VERA® compounds made from biomass-balanced polypropylene (PP). The sources of raw materials for the PP are vegetable oil/fat waste, which is produced in various processes, e.g. in the food industry. Certification ensures traceability of the sustainable material flow along the entire value chain.
The new products are marketed under the brand name M·VERA® PPH and M·VERA® PPC. Changing from conventional polypropylene to the sustainable version is easy for processors, as the material can be used as a drop-in solution without adjusting the process parameters in production. The material alternative with reduced carbon footprint offers consistent properties and is suitable for a wide range of applications. They range from injection-moulded thin-wall packaging and transparent containers to biaxially oriented films (BOPP films) and sophisticated fibre applications (melt-blown processes).
For the M·VERA® PPH and M·VERA® PPC compounds, BIO-FED offers masterbatches in cooperation with its sister company AF-COLOR. Suitable for the field of application in the circular economy, these new color masterbatches are named AF-CirColor® and AF-CirCarbon®. The portfolio is supplemented by the matching AF-CirComplex® additive masterbatches.
