Europe UTECH 2024, the leading event in the polyurethane industry, concluded on April 25th after three days of insightful discussions. Wanhua Chemical, in collaboration with its European subsidiary BorsodChem, showcased a diverse range of innovative and sustainable polyurethane solutions that garnered significant interest from industry professionals.
Innovative Industry Solutions:
Automotive Polyurethane Solutions
As the automotive industry progresses towards lightweighting, comfort, and safety, the company is at the forefront of exploring eco-friendly and versatile solutions in automotive polyurethane. The portfolio includes wide range of products such as automotive seats, acoustic carpets, headliners, steering wheels, and more. The products excel in odor levels, reduce VOC emissions by 20% compared to peers, lower foam density by 15% within the industry, and facilitate 30% efficiency enhancement through rapid demolding. Additionally, the solutions contribute to a 12% reduction in carbon footprint, further supporting the industry's green initiatives.
Building Insulation Materials
PIR and PUR panels offer a versatile solution suitable for both soft and hard surface materials. They boast remarkable aesthetic appeal, with features such as low air bubbles and controlled dimensions. Additionally, the panels perform excellent bonding properties on both upper and lower surfaces, along with corresponding flame retardant capabilities. Waterborne spray-on composite materials offer environmental-friendly performance, featuring smooth surfaces, without air bubbles between layers, and strong adhesive properties. With a storage stability period of over six months, they can be widely utilized for roof and interior spraying applications.
Home Furnishing Solutions
We commit ourselves into innovation in polyurethane foam, developing a range of polyurethane slow rebound material solutions, including gas expansion, water permeability, and bio-based options. These materials, characterized by non-temperature sensitivity, water permeability, and excellent pressure resistance, find wide applications in mattresses, pillows, cushions, and soft home furnishings. Moreover, our high rebound foam enhances comfort in office furniture.
Green Environmental Solutions:
With years of expertise in polyurethane product lines and the synergistic effects of MDI, TDI, and polyether industrial chains, Wanhua Chemical's polyurethane industry is undergoing gradual upgrades. Products such as MDI, TDI, and bio-based polyethers have all received international sustainability and carbon certifications (ISCC PLUS), promoting the industry towards sustainability.
Bio-based polyols boast low odor and VOC emissions while delivering superior compression resistance and foam structure, meeting the demands of premium furniture users.
Meanwhile, our polyurethane foam recycling technology employs chemical methods to produce regenerated polyethers with equivalent quality and performance to standard counterparts. These recycled polyethers find applications in refrigeration insulation, automotive components, pipeline insulation, and household products, aligning with the principles of circular economy and delivering both economic and environmental benefits.
Looking forward, the company remains committed to driving innovation and sustainability in the polyurethane industry and look forward to continued collaboration with partners and stakeholders worldwide.
