Sustainable Resins from Rohm

Röhm launches DEGALAN® proTerra, a sustainable product range for the coating and adhesives industry. DEGALAN proTerra is partially made from recycled PMMA (polymethylmethacrylate), which supports the circular economy aspect. The products offer a reduced product carbon footprint (CO₂ emission) and contribute to climate protection. Benefits of DEGALAN proTerra LP 64/12 in comparison to established resins made from virgin, fossil-based raw materials include:

• 35% material from recycled PMMA in order to support the circular economy aspect
• Approximately 15% product carbon footprint (CO₂ emission) reduction, which contributes to climate protection
• Sustainable drop-in alternative for solvent-born coatings with:
1. Reduced carbon footprint (CO₂ emissions)
2. Use of circular material
3. High solids with low solvent content
4. Low viscosity and quick drying
5. Excellent weatherability and appearance
