Is it possible to improve your packaging manufacturing performance and reduce your carbon footprint – at the same time?
It is with SASOLWAX LC 100 – developed specifically for the packaging and adhesives markets. SASOLWAX LC 100 offers superior performance while achieving a 35% reduction in product carbon footprint (PCF), thanks to Sasol Chemicals’ innovative production process.
With SASOLWAX LC 100, packaging manufacturers can produce more high-quality boxes in less time with fewer raw materials while significantly reducing the PCF of their products – without the need for investments in new equipment.
That’s because drop-in ready SASOLWAX LC 100 provides the same exceptional properties and performance benefits as Sasol's industry benchmark SASOLWAX H1, including:
- Enabling odourless, crystal clear HMA formulations in combination with metallocene polymers, through low viscosity, high crystallinity and stability
- Smoother, thinner adhesive application, resulting in more box closures with less adhesives
- Enabling high-speed packaging lines due to fast set times
- Improved durability and stability
- Outstanding thermal stability, boosting operational efficiency for HMA manufacturers.
Sasol's model for calculating PCFs for its wax value chain has undergone a critical third-party review and complies with ISO 14040 & ISO 14044, ISO 14067 compliant with the TfS PCF Guideline*, an international standard that outlines the requirements and guidelines for quantifying the carbon footprint of products throughout their life cycle. *except data quality rating
