Founded in Sweden in 2018, Lignin Industries aims to change how we view forest products. Lignin is a complex organic polymer found in plant cell walls, providing strength and stability.
Traditionally, lignin has been considered a waste product in paper pulp production and often burned for energy. However, Lignin Industries envisions a different future for this rich resource.
Through advanced chemical processes and innovative manufacturing methods, Lignin Industries has developed technology that can convert lignin into a renewable high-performance thermoplastic, which they call Renol.
One of the major advantages of Lignin Industries' technology is its environmental friendliness. By using lignin, a renewable and abundantly available resource, the company reduces the need for fossil fuels and helps decrease carbon dioxide emissions. Additionally, they reduce waste from paper pulp production, leading to a more circular and sustainable industry.
Lignin Industries' success is a clear example of how Swedish companies can lead the global transition to a greener economy. With their groundbreaking technology, they demonstrate the immense potential in rethinking and utilizing nature's resources in new and innovative ways.
