New manufacturing processes can integrate up to 40% post-consumer recycled content into powder coating resins.

Arkema announces a breakthrough in new manufacturing processes that integrate up to 40% post-consumer recycled content from end-of-life packaging products into its powder coating resins.

Powder coating is a solvent-free, low-waste technology, which can now be made more circular by including recycled content. Arkema's new recycled based powder resin innovation uses post-consumer PET (polyethylene terephthalate) coming from end-of-life packaging as an alternative to traditional fossil-based raw materials to create products containing up to 40% recycled PET and reducing PCF (Product Carbon Footprint) by up to 20%.

"Alongside our bio-based and mass balance offers, increasingly incorporating recycled feedstocks is another step towards ensuring more circular high-performance solutions and a more sustainable lifestyle. Arkema's new recycled based powder resins further enrich sustainable solutions for our partners, enabling end markets to increase the percentage of recycled content in their finished products," said Richard Jenkins, SVP and member of the Executive Committee.
