Thanks to the successful development of environmentally friendly foams, W.AG can offer the cases in its product series <\/strong>Organicline<\/strong> as a holistically sustainable complete solution with immediate effect. The company has expanded its inlay production to include the realisation of custom-fit foam inlays made from the biopolymer Arboblend.<\/strong><\/p>

The Thuringian company W.AG<\/a> is expanding its Biopolymer Arboblend<\/strong> manufactured product range by Foam inserts for cases<\/strong>. W.AG presented this innovation at this year's Specialist pack<\/a> presented. Previously, the company had already manufactured case half-shells from the material. Both private label and OEM customers of W.AG now have the opportunity to upgrade their products with holistically sustainable packaging that contributes to improving the eco-balance of the entire product life cycle.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\"Our complete Organicline solutions proved to be a real crowd-puller at Fachpack. Numerous manufacturers from all key sectors of the industry showed concrete interest in the environmentally friendly cases and the new inlays made from the resource-saving foam material,\" reports W.AG Head of Development Bj\u00f6rn Ullrich.<\/p>

The biopolymer Arboblend was developed by the Ilsfeld-based company Tecnaro and consists of Up to 93 per cent from renewable raw materials<\/strong>. This is a mix of materials consisting of Glucose, natural waxes, minerals and natural fibres<\/strong>which can be processed using established plastics technology processes. In 2020, the material received the seal of approval from the international brand assessment organisation Green Brands<\/a>.<\/p>

While Arboblend gives the housings and half-shells of the Organicline cases and boxes a Robustness comparable to polypropylene<\/strong> it enables the realisation of precise, firm, sterile and water-repellent foam inlays in inlay production.<\/p>

According to Bj\u00f6rn Ullrich, \"they are in no way inferior to conventional inlays in terms of quality and reliability and can be on identically adjusted machines<\/strong> are manufactured. Our new Organicline foam is also recyclable and is produced using the extrusion process - a technology that produces low levels of pollutants in a closed CO2<\/sub>-cycle and does not require any chemical additives\". W.AG currently offers the sustainable inlays in four different colours.<\/p>
