Renewable raw materials combined with recyclates: KIBDUR rPP combines the advantages of bioplastics with those of recycled plastics
KIBDUR® rPP compounds are hybrids that combine recyclates and bio-based raw materials while being fully recyclable. These compounds offer the advantage that technical properties can be adjusted even more constantly and the process capability can be optimized.
Depending on the application, a high-quality polypropylene post-consumer (PCR) or post-industrial recyclate (PIR) is combined with a bio-based plastic to produce the compounds.
KIBDUR® rPlastic thus makes a significant contribution to a functioning circular economy. The use of plastics based on renewable raw materials conserves fossil resources and sustainably reduces harmful greenhouse gas emissions. By recycling plastics, these valuable materials are kept in the cycle and plastic products are thus made more sustainable.
At the end of their service life, products made of KIBDUR® rPlastic can be recycled in existing disposal systems. The processing conditions and mechanical properties correspond to those of KIBDUR® Plastic or fossil PP virgin material. KIBDUR® rPlastic grades are characterized by high impact strength combined with toughness and are a direct drop-in solution.
