CONCRETE SOLUTIONS
At INTERFLEX FOAMS, concrete actions support our ISO 14001 certification.
For closed-cell EPDM:
EPK 15 OG
We have recently developed new solutions such as a closed-cell “Organic” EPDM (containing up to 80% bio-based content in the main polymer, in this case EPDM).
Our goal is also to develop the same range of closed-cell products we currently offer (from super-soft to high density) using EPDM produced from non-mineral sources, in order to pave the way toward reduced dependence on the petroleum industry.
EPK 15 OG has been available since early 2024.
Recycled closed-cell foam:
We also offer a closed-cell foam made from recycled polyethylene sources. This provides a sustainable alternative to traditional foam materials, reducing environmental impact through the reuse of materials that would otherwise be discarded.
Today, our PE R 90 and PE R 130 contain only recycled polyethylene in their formulation, along with other components, to provide you with products available in block, sheet, or roll form.
CO₂ emissions reduction
We are also working to reduce the CO₂ emissions of all our sponge rubbers. CO₂ emissions data are now available for most of our products: please contact us to find out more and include them in your own sustainability approach.
For any questions or further information, our team will be happy to assist you.
