Why DuraSense®
- Improved environmental footprint with wood fiber biocomposite
- Affordable and commercially available alternative
- Wide property span for a range of applications
When are biocomposites a good choice?
Rigid materials
Most suitable for rigid materials.
Smart designs
Smart product design allows for higher fiber content. Thick-walled products can generally handle higher fiber loads.
Coloured
The natural colour of wood fibers is caramel, hence transparent products are not possible to produce.
Walls above 0.8 mm
Minimum wall-thickness of at least 0.8 mm. Required wall thickness dependent on product geometry. For thin-walled applications (below 1 mm) master batching is suitable.
