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. KCLâs Voith lab refiner enables large scale repulpability methods and testing the usability of the recycled material.
KCL together with multiple actors from the entire paper value chain is participating in the development of the CEPI European harmonized recyclability testing method. The CEPI recyclability laboratory test method has just been released and its recyclability evaluation protocol will soon be released.
Our standard methods for recyclability testing include:
TAPPI UM 213 Repulpability testing of splicing adhesive
