DIn Certco certified METHACRYLATE MONOMERS FROM BIO-BASED RAW MATERIALS
We are the solution provider on your sustainability journey.
Every day and in close collaboration with our customers we address the challenges of carbon footprint reduction. We are committed to contributing to a better world with next-generation products. Developing methacrylate monomers with a reasonable bio-content is therefore a central approach of our work. For this purpose, we are dedicating significant resources and are constantly exploring opportunities to extend our VISIOMER® Terra product range and meet our sustainability ambitions. VISIOMER® Terra offers sustainable and low hazardous building blocks for your polymers with a biocarbon content of up to 85 %.
Life-cycle analysis data are available for all our VISIOMER® Terra products, demonstrating the carbon footprint reduction throughout the entire value chain. What’s more, we guarantee the bio contents of our VISIOMER® Terra products under the Certification Scheme Biobased Products according to ASTM D 6866.
VISIOMER® TERRA PRODUCTS ARE ECO-FRIENDLY LABELLED AND CONTRIBUTE TO SUSTAINABLE SOLUTIONS WITH certified HIGH BIO-CARBON CONTENT
