Perfectly Formed: Injection Molding Surfaces and Their Impact on Function & Design
In this article, we will show you the different types of surfaces available in injection moulding and the associated challenges. We will also demonstrate how our 6-pack carrier made from sunflower seed shells, presented alongside Haidlmair at the Arburg Technology Days 2023, serves as the perfect example.
Golden Compound Relies on Bio-PBS and Sunflower Seed Shells – Sustainable Plastics with Excellent Processing Properties
Plastic pollution is a major environmental issue. We need new materials that are environmentally friendly yet strong. One such material is polybutylene succinate (PBS). This biodegradable plastic is an excellent alternative to conventional plastics, such as polyethylene (PE) and polypropylene (PP).
Earth Overshoot Day 2025 – What It Means and Why We Need to Act
To push Earth Overshoot Day back, we must make significant changes to our economic systems and consumer behaviors.
WPC vs. S²PC – both materials have their merits, but which one is right for you?
Biocomposites are currently popular because they combine the advantages of technical plastics with natural fibres, providing a sustainable alternative to materials that are purely fossil-based.

Sustainable color splendor: Masterbatches for environmentally friendly products
There is often a misconception that only fully bio-based bioplastics are biodegradable. The reality is more complex: bioplastics that are partially or completely made from fossil raw materials can also be biodegradable and can be returned to the natural environment.
Biodegradation of bioplastics - even fossil materials can be environmentally friendly!

Barrier values in bioplastics
Our home-compostable coffee capsules are made from bioplastics, so they're an excellent alternative to aluminium and plastic. They're great because they retain the full flavour and can simply be disposed of in your home compost – no residue!

(Bio)plastics and water - an ambivalent relationship
On World Environment Day, it is worth thinking about the connection between plastics and water. Not many other materials have such a big effect on our waters – sometimes this effect is bad, but thanks to new bio-based alternatives, it is also becoming more positive.
KUTENO 2025 - A success for our new biopolymer GC green 71 MI T30
We had a great time at the KUTENO 2025 trade fair in Bad Salzuflen. We would like to say a big thank you to everyone who visited our stand!
4 weeks to go: Golden Compound at KUTENO 2025
We will be at KUTENO - Kunststofftechnik Nord for the first time this year. From 13 to 15 May 2025, we will be showing you our sustainable biomaterials. You will find us in hall 20, stand K3.
