Nordmann launches distribution partnership with Biofibre
Headquartered in Altdorf, Germany, Biofibre was founded in 2011 and produces Biofibre granules. The granules are a compound of natural fibres and a (bio-)polymer matrix. In the manufacturing process, natural fibre and matrix combine to form a natural fibre-reinforced biomaterial for thermoplastic processing to produce moulded products. The applications are many and varied – from alternative packaging concepts, technical workpieces through to use in the concrete industry.
Jost E. Laumeyer, Global Sales Director Plastics at Nordmann, said: "Biofibre is a significant new supplier for Nordmann. As a chemical distributor, sustainable raw materials and the reduction of plastic waste are of great importance to us. That is why we are particularly pleased to take over the distribution of Biofibre's natural fibre-reinforced CO2 neutral biomaterials, enabling us to offer our customers an alternative for sustainably manufactured products."
The Biofibre product range includes the bio-based compounds Biofibre Silva, Biofibre Solva, Biofibre Lenta and Biofibre Sustra, as well as customized blends for customer-specific requirements.
said Christoph Glammert, CEO of Biofibre, added: "We believe the partnership has great potential and thanks to Nordmann's international network and excellent relationships we are confident that we can significantly increase awareness of Biofibre products in the European market."
