- Casting resins with fillers and recycled polyols
- Customized recycling plants based on thermal glycolysis
- Contract manufacturing of molded components
Polyurethane Systems
- Polyurethane systems have a real future
RAMPF Eco Solutions has gained specialized know-how in the
formulation of polyurethane systems based on its own polyols.
Polyurethane systems based on alternative waste and raw materials
are just as versatile as polyurethanes based on new polyols.
Your Benefits
- Less expensive than primary polyol
- Retains the former product characteristics with the new
cross-linking
- Top-quality polyol mix
- Lower disposal costs
- Highly efficient resource saving
- Recycling raw materials protects the environment
Integral foams
- Semi-rigid
integral foams: RAMPF Eco Solutions produces semi-rigid integral
foams based on recycled polyols (Recypol®). Formulations can contain
anything from 25-30% Recypol. Typical applications include shoe soles
and foam insulation for beer kegs.
Rigid integral foams: In the area of rigid integral foams, RAMPF Eco
Solutions offers formulations containing up to 15% recycled polyol (Recypol®).
Possible applications for these products include window frame enclosures.
Rigid foams
-
Rigid foams formulated by RAMPF Eco Solutions can contain up to 20% Recypol.
These foams are used for applications such as insulation.
Flexible foams
- Flexible foam formulations from RAMPF Eco Solutions are
used in items such as mattresses and car seats. They contain 20-30% Recypol.
Casting resins
- Casting resin systems from RAMPF Eco Solutions can
contain fillers and 18% Recypol.
Base Polyols
- Sustainable and cost-efficient recycled raw materials
For over 20 years, research teams at RAMPF Eco Solutions have been carrying
out research into and developing alternative polyols. Customized polyols are
produced by recycling polyurethane and PET at one of Europe's largest
thermal glycolysis plants. The base polyols obtained by recycling are
reintegrated into the customer's production cycle by RAMPF Eco Solutions or
another polyurethane systems house. This delivers both environmental and
economic benefits. And by using polyols based on renewable raw materials (biopolyols),
RAMPF Eco Solutions' customers no longer need to rely on dwindling
petrochemical raw materials.
Your benefits
- Less expensive than primary polyol
- Retains the former product characteristics with the new cross-linking
- Top-quality polyol mix
- Lower disposal costs
- Highly efficient resource saving
- Recycling raw materials protects the environment
- No reliance on dwindling petrochemical raw materials
Recypole®
- Recypol® is the name given to alternative polyols created
by recycling polyurethane.
Petole®
- Petol® is the name for polyols created by recycling PET.
Biopolyols
- Biopolyurethanes are polyurethanes made from renewable
raw materials. They can replace traditional fossil-based plastics in
numerous applications, thereby saving on resources and improving the
sustainability of industrial applications. Starting materials for these
high-grade plastics include vegetable oils, corn, wood (lignin), and
greases. Targeted modification and functionalization enable biopolyols to be
used in all kinds of technical applications. In some cases, the properties
of the natural products give the polyols enhanced product characteristics.
Plant Engineering
- Customer-specific plants for manufacturing polyols
(PUR, PET)
Having a recycling plant on site makes it possible to produce polyols that
can be fed straight back into the production process. In addition to cutting
transport and disposal costs, this makes the production of PUR-based
products more environmentally friendly. RAMPF Eco Solutions offers its
customers the complete design of a recycling plant tailored to their
specific needs, including the necessary chemical expertise and induction of
the relevant personnel.
