Powder coating is renowned for its solvent-free and low-waste characteristics, and Arkema’s latest innovation enhances its sustainability by integrating recycled content. The new recycled-based powder resin utilizes post-consumer PET (Polyethylene terephthalate) sourced from end-of-life packaging. This material produces products that contain up to 40% recycled PET.
“Alongside our Bio-based and Mass Balance offers, increasingly incorporating recycled feedstocks is another step towards ensuring more circular high-performance solutions and a more sustainable lifestyle. Arkema’s new recycled based powder resins further enrich sustainable solutions for our partners, enabling end markets to increase the percentage of recycled content in their finished products,” said Richard Jenkins, Sr. Vice President, and member of the Executive Committee.
