KEBALLOY ECO FE 210205/7 R-PET (development product*)
KEBALLOY ECO FE 210205/7 R-PET is a 30% glass fibre reinforced PET compound. The PET base polymer is made from 100% post-consumer recycled PET bottles. KEBALLOY ECO FE 210205/7 R-PET is therefore a sustainable alternative to other glass fibre reinforced structural materials, e.g. as a metal substitute.
R-PET - KEBALLOY ECO
Details
The name KEBALLOY ECO stands for a product range of engineering plastics and high-performance compounds based on post-consumer or post-industrial recyclate. KEBALLOY ECO compounds enable significant CO2 savings compared to virgin materials and meet the highest requirements in terms of product properties and their uniformity from batch to batch. KEBALLOY ECO compounds also enable customer- or application-specific microcycles of engineering plastic parts and are thus a valuable contribution on the way to a circular plastics economy.
