BITREZ LIMITED

Sustainability and climate change are climbing higher up people’s agendas

Bitrez Ltd launches bio-based resins

The new family of Bio-based resins, including bio-Epoxy systems and PFA (Polyfurfuryl Alcohol), are designed especially for composite applications and are REACH (registration, evaluation, authorisation and restriction of chemicals) compliant.

PFA is a thermosetting bio-resin derived from biomass crop waste with similar qualities to a Phenolic resin but with lower VOC emissions. In addition to its environmental credentials, PFA has fire retardant properties equivalent to Phenolic, plus excellent temperature and chemical resistance.

Epoxy resins require Epichlorohydrin and Bisphenol A. By employing creative chemistry, Bitrez offers epoxy products based on renewable substitute feedstock which when combined with our green epoxy curing agents provide formulated systems with high bio- content.
