Sustainable Tooling Board Materials

We create, we innovate, we solve problems. That’s why it’s important to us to continually look at ways to reduce our impact on the environment.

Working closely with our supply chain partners, we're ensuring that we use bio-based raw materials made from renewable sources within our tooling board material formulations. We certify the content of our products according to ISO 16620 through a third party, with certification information available on request.

As part of our ongoing product development programme we're focused on developing new solutions with a reduced environmental impact compared to older technologies.

Same great products; improved environmental impact.

WHY USE BIO-BASED RAW MATERIALS?

Bio-based raw materials come from renewable resources such as plants, and by changing the way we source some of our raw materials we can reduce the amount of fossil-based raw materials used in our processes to achieve a better balance and improve our environmental impact.  

All of the bio-based raw materials we use are REACH-compliant.

RAW MATERIAL SOURCES

  • Palm kernel oil – an edible vegetable oil derived from the kernel of the fruit of oil palm trees. The palm oil we use meets RSPO global standards for sustainable production  
  • Vegetable glycerine – a type of carbohydrate derived from plant oils  
  • Sucrose - a sugar composed of glucose and fructose, derived from plants  
  • Castor oil – a vegetable oil derived from castor beans
