Extrusion Asia Edition 1-2023

37 Extrusion Asia Edition 1/2023 kem 合作的项目，利用消费后回收材料 （PCR），通过吹塑 工艺在考特斯技术中心成功加工成单层吹塑成型的儿童喷 壶。 T he booth is a clear visual statement of the " Final Plastic Pro- duct " philosophy of Kautex. “For us, the plastic product of highest quality of our customers is in the foreground, not the producing machine," explains Geoffrey Chan, CEO, Kautex Asia. "We are aware that we are taking a different approach here as expected of a machine manufacturer. But we are con- vinced: First, we must talk about our customers' product in or- der to then talk about the production solution. Only by under- standing our customers’ real needs and product, we can satisfy them sustainably and in the long term. Furthermore, we act in accordance with our corporate vision, philosophy and mission. With the final customer product of highest quality at the cen- ter, we create leading change and added value.” Innovative and sustainable – virtual presentation of production solutions The motto " Experience the Difference " further refers to the way Kautex presents its production solutions: At the booth, vi- sitors can experience 19 different production solutions – via in- novative virtual reality and augmented reality technology. "Re- gardless of whether a customer is interested in producing bott- les, jerry cans, IBCs, liners or even kayaks, says Dimitri Zhang, CSO, Kautex China. “We can show each customer exactly the production solution that is interesting to them in an innovative way. So, we don't just show a physical machine, we show the right machine for the customer.” Sustainability vision and mission presented Furthermore, visitors can learn at the Kautex booth about the company’s sustainability vision and mission. In its sustainability vision, Kautex Maschinenbau sets itself the goal of providing its customers with the best possible support in making their pro- ducts better and more sustainable. The mission is focused on actively driving the establishment of the circular economy, al- ways in line with the corporate mission, which states creating leading change and added value. Specific projects at the booth show how Kautex is putting its sustainability vision and mission into practice. R-Cycle is an exemplary project in which Kautex is actively in- volved in establishing the circular economy. With the help of a digital product passport, recycling-relevant information is alrea- dy recorded during the production of a plastic product and stored in the R-Cycle database. During recycling, this data can in turn be read out for optimal reuse. The pilot projects that Kautex has undertaken as part of the R-Cycle initiative can be seen at the booth. Another project – in cooperation with Braskem – successfully demonstrates that upcycling of post-consumer waste (PCR) with appropriate measures leads to ever better results. The compounds used were successfully processed at the Kautex Technical Center into monolayer blow molded products. Bras- kem's material was used to make a children's watering can, which will be given out as a giveaway at the booth. 考特斯机械制造公司在2023年中国国际橡塑展上。 2C31展位 Kautex Maschinenbau at Chinaplas 2023: Booth 2C31 ➠ Kautex Maschinenbau Kautexstr. 54, 53229 Bonn, Germany www.kautex-group.com
