carbonauten polymers
CO2-negative, technical biocarbon composites
carbonauten polymers develops and produces ready-to-use, CO2-negative compounds and masterbatches. Many properties of the plastics are improved, costs are reduced and recyclability is retained. The granulates are processed in the same way as other plastics. In addition to standardized composites, customer-specific granulates are also possible.
Plastics become a CO2 sink
By enriching the compounds with up to 50% biocarbon, carbonauten polymers plays an important role in reducing CO2 emissions and transforming the plastics industry. The long-term goal is to achieve fill levels of 90% technical biocarbon.
