Recycled Nylon Carbon Fibre - rPACF
Reflow rPACF is a 3D printing material recipe where cutting edge material science and rigorous material recycling converge to create a high performance engineering solution for a greener future.
Source Traceability
Reflow’s rPACF composite material consists of a recycled nylon (PA6) polymer reinforced with chopped technical fibres that are post industrial recycled (PIR). This groundbreaking material constitutes a high-performance, recycled nylon, carbon fibre blend that is 98% recycled. Our nylon base is recycled from both post industrial sources (fishing nets) and post consumer sources (carpets and couches) at end of life and has been certified by independent third parties. Our recycled technical carbon fibres are reclaimed from production leftovers and end cones typically bound for aerospace manufacturing. All of the recipe inputs are sourced from collectors and recyclers within the EU. Our recycled composite materials can substitute their virgin counterparts without loss in performance, while providing a large reduction in GHG emissions and tackling plastic pollution.
