Lignin-based

Solutions

Lignin expertise for
more sustainable materials

There are many fossil-based materials in our daily life that contain unsustainable and harmful ingredients for consumers. For this reason, novel biopolymer solutions are gaining more attention, but these are often difficult to process or lack key attributes, such as ageing resistance and mechanical stiffness. Another common problem is that the pricing of such materials is a hurdle for industries that would like to move towards greener materials.

Lignin is an attractively priced, natural resource that acts as a key multifunctional anti-aging and reinforcement component in the woody cell wall of plants. Lignopure’s particle technology enables the utilization of lignin’s natural functionalities as a multifunctional natural performance additive for the benefit of our clients into novel biocomposites for various applications like fibers, flexible materials, foils and foams.

Let us guide you through the process of developing and implementing natural lignin-based novel materials together with our strong partner network. From lignin selection, lignin particle optimization, formulation and process development to analytics and prototyping, Lignopure’s expertise will develop the customized process you and your product needs.
