>70% bio-based content, manufactured in the UK using >85% renewable energy
Great flexibility and adhesion to polyolefin films, Suitable for cold-seal release laquers
Bespoke formulations for your application
Reliable supply chain and logistics
Packaging printed with polyamide ink binders can be readily recyclable. The ink binders are designed to allow for efficient separation and removal during the recycling process, ensuring the packaging materials can be reused or repurposed effectively.
Polyamide ink binders can be formulated as water-based inks, which offer multiple sustainability advantages. Water-based inks have lower volatile organic compound (VOC) emissions compared to solvent-based alternatives, having a lower toxicity and reducing CO2 during printing.
Casamid™ Thermosetting Powder Coatings
Curing agents for interior epoxy powder coatings and reactive matting agents for epoxy, hybrid and exterior durable powder coatings
Energy Efficiency: Casamid™ curing agents facilitate low-temperature curing processes achieving complete cure at lower temperatures, reducing energy consumption during the process. This energy efficiency contributes to lower production costs and a reduced carbon footprint.
Reduced Environmental Impact: Casamid™ can be formulated to achieve a low environmental impact using eco-friendly processes and raw materials, minimizing the generation of harmful by-products or emissions. This supports sustainable manufacturing practices and helps reduce the overall environmental footprint of the powder coating industry.
VOC-Free Formulations: Powder coatings formulated with Casamid™ curing agents are inherently free from volatile organic compounds (VOCs). VOCs are known to contribute to air pollution and pose health risks to humans and the environment. By using VOC-free powder coatings, the release of harmful emissions during application and curing is eliminated, creating a healthier and safer working environment.
