Biobased PP (biobased polypropylene) is an innovative, partially biobased material offering an alternative to traditional polypropylenes. Thanks to its lightness, mechanical and chemical resistance, and ease of processing, it is suitable for a wide range of industrial applications.
This material is particularly used in the packaging sector for the manufacture of films and rigid containers, especially for food and cosmetics applications. In the automotive industry, it is used for both interior and exterior parts.
Biobased PP is also in demand in the textile and nonwovens sectors for the production of fibers. Finally, it is used in household appliances and electronics for the manufacture of components requiring robustness and durability.
Thanks to its versatility and the optimization possibilities offered by compounds, biobased PP is the ideal solution for the varied requirements of modern industry.
