歐米亞集團與益瑞石集團正式宣布成立各占50:50的技術合資公司,以加強微米級纖維化纖維素(MFC)在各領域及應用上的研究和開發。合資公司將歐米亞的MFC和FiberLeanTM相關技術整合到一個平臺發展,命名為FiberLean®技術,并于2016年5月1日開始運作。
Omya and Imerys are pleased to announce the formation of a 50:50 technology Joint Ventureto promote the research and development of Micro Fibrillated Cellulose (MFC) concerning avariety of applications and across industries. The venture will combineOmya’s MFC and theFiberLeanTM technology platforms developed by each company into one entity, henceforth tobe known as FiberLean Technologies, which will commence operations as of 1st May, 2016.
FiberLean® MFC,第一個可供銷售產品,可以為紙及紙板廠家改善質量,或者通過增加礦物填料的添加量來獲得生產利潤以及節約成本。它還可以用到建筑材料、醫藥以及高分子聚合物等行業,同時它也通過了美國食品及藥物管理局(FDA)的食品接觸通知(FCN)認證。
FiberLean MFC, the first commercially available product, allows paper & packaging producers toimprove quality and/or increase the mineral filler loading to achieve productivity gains and reducedcosts. Additional future target markets include construction materials, pharmaceutical products aswells as polymer applications. FiberLean MFC has a Food Contact Notification (FCN) from the U.S.Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
MFC的商業活動由歐米亞和益瑞石的商務團隊各自獨自運作,以更加快捷地讓多行業的客戶了解該技術。
The commercialization of MFC is to be independently and separately undertaken by Omya andImerys commercial teams making the technology easily accessible to customers across variousindustries.
微米和納米級纖維素制品(MNC)是可再生的,可持續的工程材料,它為工業和消費市場提供非同一般的性能和價值。FiberLean®技術將拓展它的工藝和應用技術來提供更多的產品和方案。
Micro and Nano Cellulosics are renewable, sustainable engineered materials with the potential todeliver exceptional performance and value to a wide range of industrial and consumer markets.FiberLean Technologies will expand its process and application technology to deliver such productsand solutions.
