AquarezBio: Combining Science & Sustainability

AquarezBio is a catalyst for change and its unique properties enable a lower carbon footprint associated with both production and end-of-life options. As well as coatings, the range can be used for many niche applications including use as binders.

1.Bio-Based 

Our coatings are formulated with polymers which range from fully bio-based to partially bio-based, stepping away from traditional fossil-fuel derived alternatives.

2.Bio-Degradable 

Not only is our solution bio-based, it’s also bio-degradable. The range incorporates various biopolymers which are certified:

  • Home compostable
  • Industrial compostable
  • Marine degradable

3.Water-Based 

Aquaspersions expertise in water-based dispersions allows us to combine core polymers with additive to optimise barrier performance of coasting. This ensures performance, stability and high-quality solutions that allow for lower coat-weights to be applied using numerous applications.

4.Paper Recyclable

Whilst not yet tested, our aim is to have offerings which will also be repulpable and recyclable. We will update our progress once testing is complete!

Our Process

1. Initial Consultation

We have an initial meeting to discuss your requirements and understand your current packaging composition.

2. Samples 

After the initial session, we apply our leading products onto samples of your paper or substrate. We can adapt them as required. Upon acceptance of lab performance, we can then send wet samples for you to validate.

3. Press Trials 

We can produce large scale product to run at your premises where we are happy to attend to ensure best practice.

4. Commercialise

Once the solution is fit for purpose, we will move to commercialise and generate the required volumes for your coating.
