WPC - Wood Polymer Composites
WPC - Wood Polymer Composites
The use of renewable raw materials in the plastics industry is becoming increasingly important. SKZ has been accompanying the development of new WPC materials or natural fiber reinforced plastics (NFK) since 2003. We deal with the individual steps of the entire value chain (excluding synthesis) of these materials, starting with formulation development and ending with recycling. Our activities focus on material selection and formulation optimization as well as on the technologies most relevant for WPC and LFPs: compounding, extrusion, injection molding, welding and bonding. In addition, our services are complemented by sustainability assessment and quality assurance.
