(formerly FoamPartner)

Sustainable Packaging Solutions made from the Innovative B 2240 Eco Foam

Sustainability Through Resource-saving Packaging Foams

With the new packaging foam B 2240 Eco we aim to save resources. We have developed an innovative polyurethane based on new raw materials, thus assuring our market position as a manufacturer of resource-saving packaging solutions. In the production of B 2240 Eco, we use raw materials that contain 20% less petroleum than comparable, conventional materials. The sustainable proportion of the finished product ultimately amounts to more than 12%. With that, we are sending a clear signal in matters of sustainability – true to our principle "People, Planet & Performance".

This packaging foam naturally has the same goods protection properties as conventional materials, and thanks to its high degree of flexibility, is perfect for a number of usages such as transport packaging for delicate or valuable goods, load carriers and reusable packaging as well as for premium foam inserts and elegant product packaging.
