Vom Material zur Anwendung: Entscheidend ist die Verarbeitung
Ein neuer Werkstoff muss nicht nur auf dem Datenblatt überzeugen. Er muss sich auch in der Praxis bewähren. Deshalb betrachten wir bei FKuR nicht allein die Materialeigenschaften, sondern immer auch die Anforderungen Ihrer Anwendung und Ihrer Produktion.
Dabei stehen beispielsweise folgende Fragen im Mittelpunkt:
	• Verarbeitbarkeit: Eignet sich das Material für Spritzguss, Extrusion oder andere etablierte Verfahren?
	• Mechanische Eigenschaften: Welche Anforderungen bestehen an Festigkeit, Flexibilität und Schlagzähigkeit?
	• Thermische Eigenschaften: Welche Temperaturbeständigkeit muss der Werkstoff mitbringen?
	• Wirtschaftlichkeit: Wie lässt sich der Einsatz alternativer Rohstoffe wirtschaftlich gestalten?
	• Prozessintegration: Welche Anpassungen sind bei einem Materialwechsel erforderlich?
Unser Anwendungsteam unterstützt Sie dabei, geeignete Werkstoffe zu identifizieren und deren Einsatzmöglichkeiten zu bewerten.

KPA

High-quality plastic products begin with the right material.

Meet FKuR at KPA in Ulm, 24–25 February 2027, Hall 1-E3. Explore bio-based plastics, PCR recyclates, and tailored plastic compounds for your application.

Choosing the right plastic influences far more than material costs. It determines processability, product properties, and potential applications. Bio-based plastics and recyclates as well as custom compounds open up additional possibilities for developing and manufacturing plastic products. But which material is suitable for which application? Which properties are decisive, and what matters during processing? FKuR supports you in answering these questions. We combine materials expertise with application experience and work with you to develop material solutions tailored to your requirements. Discover what is possible with FKuR materials at KPA – Kunststoff Produkte Aktuell in Ulm.

Discover FKuR’s Material Diversity

Whether injection molding, extrusion, blow molding, or another processing method: different applications require different materials. FKuR offers a broad portfolio of plastic solutions and supports you in selecting the right material. FKuR not only helps you find the right material for your application. We also support you throughout the technical implementation—from material selection and sampling through to the first processing steps. Whether you have questions about machine settings, processing parameters, or material properties, our technical support team is at your side with experience and expertise. Our commitment: we want you not only to find the right material, but also to use it successfully in your production.

Bio-based plastics

Plastics based on renewable raw materials can fully or partially replace fossil-based materials. Depending on the material and application, they offer properties comparable to those of established plastic types.

Biodegradable and compostable plastics

For applications where biodegradability is a required product property, FKuR offers suitable material solutions. The relevant conditions of use and requirements for the end product are decisive.

Recyclates and PCR materials

Post-consumer and post-industrial recyclates offer opportunities to use processed plastic materials in new products. FKuR supports you in selecting suitable material grades for your application.

Custom plastic compounds

When standard materials are not sufficient, tailor-made solutions are required. Together with you, we develop compounds that are matched to the technical requirements of your application and your processing processes.

What challenges are you currently facing in plastics processing?

Whether you are changing materials, developing a new product, or optimizing existing formulations at KPA – Kunststoff Produkte Aktuell, we would like to discuss the topics that matter in your day-to-day work.

Possible topics for discussion

Bring your questions we will bring our materials expertise.
