Reuse for Tomorrow

Choose your greener journey

We introduce sustainable plastic solutions, showcasing a comprehensive approach with a significantly optimised carbon footprint.
As we aim worldwide to reduce green house gas emissions, a sustainable use of plastic is essential. Many still end up in thermal treatment instead of being reused. Our sustainable solutions aim to prevent linear use of finite resources and reduce the reliance on fossil raw material.

Our comprehensive approach accomplishes in two ways:
We offer products made from bio-based plastics derived from biological waste like wood by-products or organic waste. In addition, we provide reprocessed plastic products sourced from production left overs, utilizing mechanical reprocessing methods. Through these efforts, we aim to reduce the demand for new fossil-based resins and foster a more sustainable use of plastics.

mass balanced bioplastics

Discover our biopolymer EF products and exchange fossil resources by using products, crafted from bio-based raw materials. Biomass balanced indicates that a portion of the raw material is organic, sourced from the wood industry or organic waste. Consequently, our stock shapes biopolymers of the EF products boast a considerably reduced carbon footprint compared to their conventional counterparts.

The manufacturing process for bio-based plastics mirrors that of fossil-based versions, ensuring comparable bioplastic properties and colors with minimal distinctions. Our bioplastics maintain comparable specifications and conform to industry standards.

Reuse biowaste and explore our EF products of bio-based rods, tubes and plates. 

Reuse biowaste with mass balanced bioplastics

Our mass-balanced bioplastics, which we call EF products, are made from biowaste.The manufacturing process of the bio-based plastics is the same as the fossil-based versions, ensuring comparable properties and colours with only minimal differences. Our bioplastics maintain comparable specifications and comply with industry standards.

Mass-balanced bioplastics through the use of renewable resources

The polymer on which our developed formulations are based has a bio-content of 56%. This content is based on PA10T, which is obtained from the renewable raw material castor oil.

Our more sustainable formulations offer comparable specifications to conventional formulations and also meet common industry standards. They are particularly suitable for use in the automotive and electronics industries.

TECACOMP PPA LDS black

TECACOMP PPA LDS black was developed for the three-dimensional functionalisation of housings and surfaces with conductor track structures as well as for ...

TECACOMP PPA TRM XS mod black

For this compound, Ensinger uses the bio-based PA10T. It has a lower amide density than conventional PPA and therefore absorbs significantly less moisture.

Reuse fossil resources with reprocessed plastics

Discover our RP products and reprocess fossil resources, by giving them a second life. The reprocessed stock shapes are sourced from the production left overs from customers and Ensinger subsidiaries, which are returned to Ensinger and carefully refurbished.

While the reprocessing may result in a slight reduction of properties compared to traditional fossil products and potential darkening, the environmental benefits of a significantly reduced footprint can often far outweigh this.

The stock shapes are available as reprocessed rods, tubes and plates. 

TECAPEEK RP natural

This PEEK material is the environmentally friendly alternative to our conventional material TECAPEEK natural.

Sustainable solutions in comparison

When comparing reprocessed products to fossil materials, these materials bear the lowest carbon footprint, although there might be a slight reduction in certain properties and an increase of impurities and potential darkening in color may occur. The properties and colors of the bioplastics closely resemble those of fossil materials, typically adhering to comparable specifications and compliance documents, yet the cost of bio-based plastics is currently still relatively high due to limited availability of the raw material. We appreciate the closeness of properties and specifications for bio-based plastics and thus offer these products in our portfolio for demanding applications of customers in special industries such as food processing etc.
