ELIX Polymers’ sustainable ABS material chosen for kitchen appliance components
BSH Home Appliances has selected the specialized, tailor-made ABS P3H-AT CR25 – a sustainable, chemically-recycled ABS (Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene) resin by ELIX Polymers for the stand, arm and various components of the latest Stand Mixer by BOSCH.
ELIX Polymers’ sustainable ABS resin is used to produce stand mixer.
P3H-AT provides excellent impact resistance, excellent construction and a high level of stability. The material also provides high chemical resistance and contains an anti-static additive.
To meet the expectations of high quality and design with a focus on details, the material offers a high gloss finish. It is also available in several colors.
ABS P3H-AT CR25 is made with 25% content of certified raw materials (bio-circular styrene), which reduce 21% of carbon footprint of this material, compared to the traditional raw material.
The resin is branded under E-LOOP CR portfolio, which is manufactured using sustainable and certified raw materials that incorporate circular and bio-based feedstocks. These products are certified according to ISCC+ and the mass balance model, ensuring traceability and transparency throughout the supply chain.
Different combinations of feedstocks are possible with main three monomers – fossil fuel-based feedstocks, chemically-recycled post-consumer waste and bio-based feedstocks. All products from the ELIX Polymers portfolio can be produced as CR grade, including applications with the strictest requirements, such as food contact, light colours and even medical parts.
