ARBOFORM® L, V3 natur

1 of 4 products in this brand
Arboform® L, V3 Natur is made from 100% renewable raw materials and is biodegradable. This material contains lignin, which is second only to cellulose as the most abundant natural polymer. Lignin is a by-product of the pulp industry and the volume produced worldwide is about 50 million tons per year. Mixing lignin with natural fibers (flax, hemp or other fiber plants) and natural additives produces a fiber composite that can be processed at raised temperatures and pressure and made into moldings on plastic injection molding machines.
