DSM, a global science-based company active in health, nutrition and materials, is launching sustainable, plant-based Decovery resins for the packaging industry.
The print and packaging industry is constantly seeking materials which offer a lower level of VOCs and carbon emissions as these will help brand owners to fulfil their sustainability pledges. In recent years, DSM has realized that its Decovery plant-based technologies could offer much-needed improvements to sustainability to the packaging market.
With the launch of the SP-6400XP – part of DSM’s Decovery range of resins for the creation of adhesives, primers, inks and topcoats – DSM is helping brand owners to take a significant step towards meeting their environmental and sustainability pledges while also moving towards fully bio-based solutions.
“With our Decovery resins we have enabled the transition to plant-based materials in the decorative, flooring, joinery and furniture markets,” said Tim Gratzke, Marketing Manager Decovery at DSM Resins & Functional Materials.
New Decovery SP-6400XP is a low-NoAH alkali-soluble acrylic copolymer dispersion with high clarity and flexibility. It is particularly suited to adhesive application, such as removable paper labels for bottles and domestic adhesives.
Jacqueline Revet, Global Marketing Manager of DSM Resins & Functional Materials said, “Adhesives are just the start. Imagine the environmental difference brand owners and manufacturers could make if primers, inks and topcoats on their packaging could be plant-based too.”
With the launch of SP–6400XP, DSM is offering brand owners, formulators and convertors a welcome opportunity to remove another layer of oil-based materials from the packaging production process.
