OXYGEN Vegetal: sustainable processing and protective films
By introducing biobased polyethylene or polypropylene, the OXYGEN Vegetal range is the best solution for manufacturers wishing to reduce their CO2 impact.
This range offers films that are biobased origin (plant oil waste & residue) and produced thanks to the Mass Balance approach.
OXYGEN Vegetal is produced thanks to the Mass Balance approach
The Mass Balance approach is an universal principle: a percentage of raw materials is replaced by responsible feedstock in the production at the early beginning of the manufacturing process.
For each square meter of Novacel OXYGEN Vegetal film, 30% of Low Density Polyethylene (LDPE) or Polypropylene is bio-sourced and mixed into our supplier's production.
OXYGEN vegetal film achieves the best reduction of CO2 emissions
- ~30% CO2 footprint reduction compared to a standard film
- Recyclable*
*Recyclable by the forms of recycling as defined by ISO 472:2013 Plastic
Easy switch with your standard product
These films are compatible with all surfaces: metals, plastics, laminates, glass...and also with all surface transformation processes, including the most severe: drilling, stamping, foaming, profiling, cutting.
Performance characteristics are equal to your standard product: mechanical, adhesive, UV resistance.
Switch easily from your standard product to a Oxygen Vegetal one. For example:
- 4233 to 3000 and still benefit from 6 months outdoor warranty
- 4228 to 3030 suitable for all Laser cutting processes
Those films are still printable. Use them as a tool for communication on your environmental approach.
