Finding Solutions Together
While the ELVR mandate is approaching, not everything will be perfect initially. As a compounder, Benvic is committed to developing new plastic solutions by incorporating post-consumer recycled plastics. Different strategies will be adopted depending on the application. A straightforward approach is to substitute a fraction of post-consumer recycled material into our existing plastic formulations, particularly for polyolefins like polypropylene (PP) compounds. Benvic plans to release a basic range of such products soon. Alternatively, a more innovative approach could capitalize on the availability of feedstock from various segments with stable properties to develop new plastics. Given the reduction of single-use plastics, the packaging industry will yield a certain amount of polymers, which allows for the design of new formulations tailored for specific functions. This requires close collaboration between compounders, OEMs, and other stakeholders regarding part design and processability to create the next generation of materials that balance cost-performance with minimized resource usage.
Benvic will be present at the K2025 fair in Düsseldorf from October 8-15, 2025. We invite you to visit our stand in Hall 8A-F12, where we will share innovative ideas for new automotive polymers, driven by our commitment to redesigning plastics. For good.
