Borcycle™ UG521MO-74

Borcycle™ UG521MO-74 is an integrated virgin block copo PP / recycled PP solution with 55% post-consumer recyclate. The post-consumer recyclate is made from post-consumer plastic waste which is pre-sorted, sorted, shredded, washed, dried, extruded (including melt filtration, at a level of 110 microns) and pelletized, resulting in a circular polypropylene grade with minimum PP content above 95% (measured via DSC). The material is sold in pellet form. Borcycle™ UG21MO-74 is designed for high-speed injection moulding and contains nucleating and demoulding additives. Products originating from this grade have excellent balance of stiffness and impact strength at ambient and cold temperature and good demoulding properties. Borcycle™ UG521MO-74 is intended for injection moulding. “-74” refers to the colour version of the product, a visual indication of “dark grey”. While recyclates may exhibit slight color variations between batches, our innovative integration of virgin PP into the ready-made PP compound ensures an optimised colour consistency. The product is not intended for use in beverages, drinking water contact, food contact, medical, pharmaceutical or healthcare applications. UG21MO-74 is part of EuCertPlast according to European Standard EN15343:2007, and compliant with EN 15345:2008 and UNI 10667-3.
