Laboratory Services
Recyclability & Repulpability
Services that create new and sustainable bio-based products
We provide customers recyclability testing of new sustainable materials
At KCL we can perform small and large scale repulpability testing, 25 g up to 1.5 kg. We also have in-house methods for testing usability of the recycled fibers and for testing potential stickiness of the recycled fiber. KCL’s Voith lab refiner enables large scale repulpability methods and testing the usability of the recycled material.
We participate in the development of the new CEPI Repulpability method.
Our standard methods for recyclability testing include:
- TAPPI UM 213 Repulpability testing of splicing adhesive
- PTS-RH 021 Repulpability
- Michelman repulpability
- FBA voluntary standard protocol, Part 1
- CEPI recyclability test method (available soon)
