Inside the Sustainable Naturacell® Process

Naturacell® begins as Cellulose. Cellulose production is a sustainable process that uses trees or cotton grown and harvested specifically for this purpose.

Among the environmental benefits of the process:

  • The trees absorb carbon dioxide and emit oxygen through photosynthesis.
  • Very little is wasted during Cellulose conversion, with the bark of the trees used for fuel.

Watch our video for a closer look at how we turn Cellulose into Naturacell—a sustainable polymer that’s ideal for a wide variety of green-minded products.

Processing & Secondary Operations

It’s Easy to Make Naturacell® Part of Your Product

Naturacell® isn’t just better for the environment. It’s better for your business, too:

  • No special tooling
  • No capital investments
  • No processing headaches
  • No learning curve

Plastics manufacturers can get started with Naturacell today. It can be processed via injection molding, extrusion and vacuum/thermoforming. It’s also well suited for secondary fabrication including solvent polishing, cutting, cementing, drilling, vacuum forming, metalizing and decorating.

ECO-FRIENDLY TIPS: AT WORK

Minimize manufacturing material waste. Since you must often dispose of items such as oil, solvents and acids, take steps to minimize your use of them – use fewer solvents to do the same job, use less toxic solvents and switch to a detergent solution.
