Filamenti 3D
PLA is the ideal thermoplastic material for 3D printing. His capacity to keep the right shape and adhesion between layers allow a high-quality modelling vs. different traditional polymers. PLANTURA® offers a
broad palette of PLAs suitable for 3D printing with different appearance and performances to manage a wide range of application, including prototypes validation for grades as well proposed for injection moulding.
Giocattoli
Research has shown that PLANTURA® products can be used to manufacture safe and affordable toys.
Toys need to meet high level of safety and harmlessness due to skin and mouth contacts: combined with a lower CO2 emission by using a minimum of 80% of renewable sources, PLANTURA® product line is right proposition for toy polymer material.
Arredamento & Casa
Consumer products, where furniture is a good example, is requiring a new paradigm to offer attractive and performing product. PLANTURA® biomaterials have a clear value not only in terms of natural resources savings and environmental care, but in the fact that these open new possibilities to create interesting new features and product perception. We are working closely with some market leader regarding introduction of new biopolymers to create a new world of possibilities.
Elettrico & Elettronico
Polymers are widely used for electrical or electronic appliance mainly for insulating properties and managing product casings with the right design. As other market, switching to biopolymers is a valid proposition to optimize natural resources use. PLANTURA® products, specifically designed for such applications, are durable, have high colourability, and perform well on existing moulds for styrenics.
Biomedico & Cosmetico
PLANTURA® product line is adapted to various use regarding cosmetic and healthcare application where our product proposition is offering a clear alternative of fossil based application, such as for packaging or disposable goods.
Automotive
Environmental friendly materials and technologies have been promoted by government regulations and have met consumers’ preferences, also because of cost savings that come from using such materials and technologies. After years of research, bio-based plastics are closer than ever to match, or perhaps even surpassing, performance and costs parameters of conventional plastics. Most car manufacturers are committed to offering affordable and environmental friendly vehicles to their customers. Their goal is to provide solutions that can be applied to millions of cars, rather than to only few hundreds or thousands of vehicles. PLANTURA® products are the practical answer to all these questions. A family of durable, high-performance compounds has been developed and successfully tested for automotive and, more generally, transportation applications.
