UPM Formi Formi EXP 40 40% Cellulose Fiber Reinforced Polypropylene
Categories:	Polymer; Renewable/Recycled Polymer; Thermoplastic; Polypropylene (PP); Polypropylene, Wood Filled
Material Notes:	Material: UPM Formi is a cellulose fiber reinforced plastic composite with high renewable material content. Principal ingredients are specially selected cellulose fibers and virgin polypropylene. Cellulose fibers significantly increase stiffness and strength of polypropylene Applications: Environmentally sound UPM Formi EXP grades are optimized for use in extrusion applications instead of polypropylene, filled polypropylene or several other plastics. Environment: UPM Formi is manufactured from renewable cellulose fibers which reduce usage of oil Based plastics. Material is fully recyclable or can be burned for energy. All cellulose fibers are from sustainably managed forests. Information provided by UPM
