EcoPaXX® Polyamide-410 (PA410) offers not only food contact safety and sustainability but also aesthetics. Food approvals are in place and also the stringent requirements on NIAS and cyclic oligomeric content are met. Our EcoPaXX® is 70% biobased and fulfills nowadays needs to be careful with our planet. The other 30% of the polymer can also be more sustainable as we can offer this with a ISCC certificate showing a more sustainable feedstock is used via a mass balancing approach. Great material to process with a good surface appearance. Orthex-Gastromax chose EcoPaXX® Q-KG6-FC as it fits perfectly with their sustainability agenda and is now used in one of their biobased kitchen utensils product lines. A great establishment realized in cooperation with our distributor Nexeo Plastics.

A natural performer

EcoPaXX is Envalior’s most established biobased engineering plastic. It combines Envalior’s propriety C4 technology with the power of nature’s C10 building block derived from castor plants, which do not compete with the food chain. The combination of the short C4 block and the long C10 block gives EcoPaXX high mechanical properties of typical short chain polyamides, but combines these with lower moisture update and higher chemical resistance more typical of long chain polyamides. EcoPaXX can easily be processed in PA66 tools while resulting in better surface quality. This makes it an ideal candidate for when performance, aesthetics and sustainability come together.
