Efficient cleaning granules made in Germany: Introducing new ALBIS partner Granula Polymer

With their GranaClean® series, Granula Polymer produces ready-to-use cleaning granules that allows plastics processors to contribute to a strong circular economy. What concept drives this new ALBIS partner based in Groß-Umstadt near Darmstadt, Germany? We met Dr. Eva-Maria Langhammer, Co-Managing Director of the company and PhD chemist, for an interview.

„If it has a screw and rotates, we can clean it” – has this always been Granula Polymer's guiding principle?

Dr. Langhammer: This sentence originates from my father, Dr. Hubert Christ, who founded the company in 1996. Back then, Granula Polymer was a specialist for powder-coatable plastics. Ever since, we have always been confronted with the issue of cleaning plastic-processing machines. As a result, we have carried out intensive research on the subject, obtained a patent for ready-to-use cleaning granules, and have granted licenses. Since 2021, we have been active as a producer of our own GranaClean® brand.
