- Smokable Sausage Casings Application Data
Details
Arnitel® ECO is bio-based material with up to 50% reduction in carbon footprint.Benefits
- Arnitel® TPC and Akulon® PA6 allow for reliable solutions since they yield excellent smoke penetration leading to great taste and sausage structure and high quality
- Arnitel® TPC and Akulon® PA6 allow for sustainable solutions, since they are free of substances of hazardous concerns and thus more environmentally friendly than cellulose casings
- Roofing Membranes Application Data
Details
Arnitel® TCP is a high-performance thermoplastic copolyester and a reliable roofing solution as it outperforms conventional microporous membranes. The VT series — VT3108, VT3104 and VT3118 — are increasingly used as lighter, smarter, greener alternatives to conventional rubbers as they reduce environmental impact and system costs. They maximize energy efficiency and reduce the carbon footprint in new buildings. Arnitel®’s processing is cost-effective compared to roofing membranes made from thermoplastic polyurethane.

- Extrusion processing.
- Breathable Outdoor Clothing Application Data
Details
With Arnitel® VT, moisture vapor can pass from the inside to the outside of the garment, but the membranes are 100% waterproof under all circumstances, so they keep the wearer comfortable and dry. Unlike competing products, Arnitel® VT does not rely on perforations to make it breathable. Perforated membranes can have their waterproofness compromised when they are washed or come into contact with liquids such as alcohols or fuels. Perforations also reduce the strength of the membrane, making it easier to rip. Perforations can get clogged too, causing the membrane to lose its breathability.Benefits
- Arnitel® TPC allows for very sustainable solutions, since it is PFC free and 100% recyclable
- Arnitel® TPC allows for very comfortable and reliable solutions due to its high breathability and 100% waterproof performance under all circumstances, unlike perforated membranes
