Materials from Rondo Plast in art exhibition

Posted on 8 Oktober, 2020 by Mia Persson in Aktuellt / Press, News / Presse

During September 2020, an art exhibition was held in Malmö, where the purpose was to draw attention to society’s major sustainability challenges related to plastic, especially what opportunities there are on how to face them. Rondo Plast sponsored the exhibition with several different recycled materials.

It is easy to dismiss plastic as a material that only causes problems. But plastics also have an important role to play in the transition towards a more sustainable society. We need to broaden our conceptions of plastics, in order to shift perspectives on how we design, produce, apply and use the material.

The artist and designer Kajsa Willner wanted to highlight this in the exhibition Materiality & Aggregation, to in an artistic context inspire and evoke curiosity about plastic, their material properties and their functionality in different applications.

Kajsa Willner built the interpretations and exhibition architecture with the aim of making as little CO2-emissions as possible, using sustainable materials from local firms. Rondo Plast sponsored the exhibition with several different materials, based on both fully and partially recycled plastic raw material.

The materials were used in a creation in the form of a transparent patchwork with 117 pockets filled with different plastic granules representing the many plastic types available on the market.

Materiality & Aggregation

The exhibition Materiality & Aggregation had its starting point in a discussion brief brought forward by the research program STEPS (Sustainable Plastics and Transition Pathways).

The report addresses how to face society’s major sustainability challenges related to plastics. Designer Kajsa Willner interpreted these challenges in five pathways to a more sustainable plastic society. The five pathways were: reduce use, recycle more, fewer types, bio based plastics and biodegradable plastics. The pathways were interpreted separately in the exhibition, but all together were meant to be crucial in the transition towards a more sustainable plastic future.

– The aim for me as a designer and for this exhibition is to use design as a tool to communicate, to convey academic research in a way that can reach out to a wider audience, says Kajsa Willner.

– In this case it’s about nuancing the public debate around plastic and advocate a more holistic view to how we approach the material.

‏ 

A panel discussion was also held during the opening of the exhibition. It included designer Kajsa Willner, representatives from STEPS and Form/Design Center.

The discussion was about how design, academia and the industry can work together for a more sustainable plastics society.

‏ 

The exhibition was held between 10-27 September 2020 at Hedmanska gården in Malmö, Sweden, in front of Form/Design Center – a large meeting place for architecture, design and art in southern Sweden.

Dark shades on Elmia Subcontractor

Posted on 23 Oktober, 2019 by Mia Persson in News / Presse

In mid-November, it’s time for the well-attended fair Elmia Subcontractor in Jönköping and Rondo Plast are represented with our own booth together with the environmentally friendly super hero Rondoman.

We will highlight the recycled and customized REZY program as well as the new investment in more dark shades.

– In addition to the technical performance, we have extensive experience of working with customized shades in the black and dark gray color scale, explains Fredrik Holst.

He says that the right choice of raw materials and a long experience in coloring gives Rondo Plast the opportunity to offer several shades of black and gray, all according to the customer’s wishes, without compromising on sustainability, quality or mechanical performance.

– Welcome come to our booth and discuss recycled plastic with us. As a wholly owned subsidiary of Polykemi AB, we at Rondo Plast have both the knowledge and experience to solve new challenges and we can help customers both in the national and international market, says Fredrik Holst.

Elmia Subcontractor runs in Jönköping between November 12 and 15, 2019. Rondo Plast can be found in booth B03:58.

Welcome to our world of multiple greys

Posted on 17 Oktober, 2019 by Mia Persson in News / Presse
Welcome-to-our-World-of-multiple-Greys-webb

In our world – things are not all black or white

To make a choice can sometimes be difficult. If the choice needs to be environmentally friendly, sustainable, aesthetically appealing and with a cost awareness, it can be even more difficult. But now and then, it can be really easy to make the right choice. Like with REZYcom – our customer adapted eco-friendly material grade, based completely or partly on recycled plastics. A great opportunity to make a maximum impression with minimal environmental footprint, without any compromises in neither quality nor sustainability. A fact we are very proud of and can put our signatures on – in black and white , even in shades of grey.

Rezycom strengths

Custom-made shades of grey

The right choice of raw material and extensive experience in coloring of plastics makes it possible for us to offer multiple shades of black and grey, according to customers’ requests.

High mechanical performance

Numerous reinforcements are available and different choices provide different mechanical properties for the plastic product. With our experience and knowledge, we are able to make the correct choices, which results in a recycled material comparable to compounds based on virgin raw material.

Optimal product lifespan

Rays of sun, strong detergents or high surrounding temperatures can severely shorten the lifespan of plastic products. However, the correct combination of additives makes it possible to optimize its lifetime.

Quality in – quality out

We choose our suppliers and sources of recycled plastics with great care. We evaluate the sources continuously, since quality is of utmost importance to us. We know it takes high quality raw materials to produce and deliver high quality products. And that is something we do. Because we can.

Long experience of sustainable plastics

Polykemi Group produces and delivers high quality, sustainable compounds of recycled plastics for injection moulding and extrusion. Apart from the customized program REZYcom, we also have REPRO – our standard range of black recycled plastics. With headquarters in Ystad, Sweden, we have over 50 years of experience of compounding and are represented on three continents.

REZYcom – our customized program of sustainable materials for a sustainable future.

Rondo Plast talks about recycled plastic in China

Posted on 16 Oktober, 2019 by Mia Persson in News / Presse

Nationally, Rondo Plast is one of the major advocates for sustainable materials. Now, we push for the recycled plastic globally, by speaking at a seminar in China.

In 2018, Volvo Cars’ ambition was announced that at least 25% of the plastic in their cars should be made of sustainable material by 2025. Ystad-based Rondo Plast is a central partner for the internationally renowned car manufacturer. This gave Rondo Plast the opportunity to showcase the project in China.

– Thanks to our good cooperation with Volvo Cars, we had the opportunity to push for the recycled plastic in China as well, says Fredrik Holst, Product Manager at Rondo Plast.

Rondo Plast, which is part of the Polykemi Group, was invited to the China Plast fair and Fredrik Holst was one of the speakers at the seminar Plastic Recycling & Circular Economy Conference & Showcase. The seminar discussed sustainability issues and what opportunities there is with recycled plastic raw materials.

– In Sweden and Europe, recycled consumer plastic is a well-known concept, but in Asia today, industrial waste constitutes a larger proportion of the recycled material. Therefore, it was interesting for us to be active in the discussion about how to bring consumer plastic back to the industry and what opportunities exist in the future, explains Fredrik Holst.

– It is our absolute intention to continue to be a global supplier of high quality recycled materials. The seminar in China provided a great opportunity to share our experiences and hopefully open up for a discussion about the material of the future in the Asian market.

Rondo Plast AB liefert REZYcom und REPRO Kunststoffcompounds an die Volvo Cars

Posted on 21 November, 2018 by Mia Persson in News / Presse
Rondo_Plast_supplies_recycled_materials_to_Volvo_Cars

Rondo Plast unterstützt die Zielsetzung von Volvo Cars, bis 2025 mindestens 25% des Kunststoffs in den Modellen aus nachhaltigem Materialien herzustellen. Das Demonstrationsfahrzeug von Volvo Cars, welches in diesem Sommer vorgestellt wurde, verdeutlicht Volvo Cars Engagement für diesen Anspruch, der von allen Premium-Automobilherstellern am fortschrittlichsten ist.

Von Beginn an ist Rondo Plast in das Projekt involviert und als wichtige Schnittstelle sowohl Ansprechpartner für den Spritzgießer als auch für Volvo Cars, um Ansätze von der Machbarkeit her zu diskutieren, Lösungen vorzuschlagen und umzusetzen. Rondo sieht durch die Teilnahme an diesem ambitionierten Projekt große Chancen für die Zukunft des Unternehmens und das breite Wissen auf dem Recyclingsektor von Rondo Plast und der gesamten Polykemi Group zu demonstrieren.

– Das neue Modell wird auf dem bestehenden Volvo XC 60 basieren. In diesem Projekt wird eine Anzahl von verbauten Kunststoffteilen mit einem Gewichtsanteil von 60 kg auf rezyklierte Kunststoffe umgestellt. Als Compounder sind wir seit Beginn der Entwicklung des Autos involviert, so Fredrik Holst, Produktmanager bei Rondo Plast.

Rondo Plast Fredrik Holst Volvo Demo Car

Rondo Plast Produktmanager Fredrik Holst bei der Enthüllung des Concept Cars beim Volvo Ocean Race in Göteborg, Schweden.

Die Rohstoffe für die recycelten Kunststoffcompounds von Rondo stammen sowohl aus Industrie- als auch aus Verbraucherabfällen. Jede Charge durchläuft vor dem Einsatz in der Produktion die strengsten Qualitätsvorgaben und Prüfungen der Qualitätssicherung. Im Concept Car kommen die Rondo Compounds in Luftkanälen, der Mittelkonsole hinter Radio und Display, den Radhausschalen, der Ladeflächenabdeckung, aber auch in vielen anderen Anwendungen, zum Einsatz.

– Unsere Materialien werden häufig in tragenden und technischen Bauteilen eingesetzt, die später mit einem Oberflächenmaterial überzogen und veredelt werden, so die weiteren Informationen von Fredrik Holst. In diesen Komponenten liegen die besten Chancen für Volvo Cars das ehrgeizige Ziel zu erreichen, dass bis 2025 mindestens 25 % des Kunststoffanteils in den Autos aus recycelten Rohstoffen bestehen.

– Wir ziehen den Hut vor Volvo Cars, den unseres Wissens nach ist Volvo Cars der erste Fahrzeughersteller im Premiumsektor, der diese Position offiziell einnimmt. Unser Bestreben ist auch weiterhin, der Partner für qualitätsgesicherte Compounds auf der Basis ganz oder teilweise recycelten Rohstoffen zu sein, fast Fredrik Holst abschließend zusammen. Lasst uns den Weg gemeinsam weitergehen!
