Material: UPM Formi is a cellulose fiber reinforced plastic composite with high renewable material content. It is specially designed for injection molding applications. Principal ingredients are specially selected cellulose fibers and virgin polypropylene. Cellulose fibers significantly increase stiffness and strength of polypropylene. Applications: Environmentally sound UPM Formi composite can be used in injection molding applications instead of polypropylene, filled polypropylene or several other plastics. EFP-grades complies with EU and US/FDA food contact regulations. 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 |
