KPA and Kuteno 2025: Plastics industry in dialogue - Between proven concepts and new approaches

Granula Polymer presented a somewhat different type of cleaning granulate in Donaustadt. Specifically, it was the product Grana Clean Uni Green. Managing Director Dr. Eva-Maria Langhammer explained: "Our Grana Clean Uni Green has a negative CO2 footprint of -0.8 CO2 equivalents per kilogram. Even if the cleaner were ineffective, we would still achieve a positive climate balance due to the CO2 reduction." The company specializes, among other things, in sustainable cleaning granulates based on biodegradable ingredients. By using biobast as a raw material, they offer an environmentally friendly alternative to conventional cleaning granulates. "Our goal is not only to increase efficiency in plastics processing, but also to actively contribute to environmental protection," emphasized Langhammer. The product was developed in collaboration with the Lüdenscheid Plastics Institute, which calculated and confirmed the CO2 equivalents.
