Syensqo, a leading global provider of advanced performance materials and chemical solutions, has announced the introduction of five new high performance Echo grades as part of the company’s growing Omnix Echo portfolio of circular polymers. With a mass-balanced allocated recycled content between 33% and 98% from post-consumer and/or post-industrial sources, including fibres, the new sustainable products offer a considerably reduced product carbon footprint potential. These products maintain the same mechanical performance and superior flowability as PA 6 and PA 66 all-virgin base materials.
The Omnix 1000 Echo series, with up to 98% mass-balanced allocated recycled content, providing up to 56% product carbon footprint reduction, is ideal for drop-in replacement of conventional polyamide resins. The Omnix FC 6000 Echo HPPAseries (food-contact approved) exceeds the performance of PA virgin incumbents and includes the industry’s first food-contact approved HPPA compound with recycled content (33%, achieving a 34% lower product carbon footprint). The Omnix 6000 Echo HPPA series (non-food-contact) delivers a superior balance of higher performance and lower product carbon footprint than engineered polyamides PA 6 or PA 66 base materials, with up to 83% mass-balanced allocated recycled content and 45% lower product carbon footprint.
