Frankfurter Brett uses Sappi Symbio in new kitchen products
Kitchen workstation manufacturer Frankfurter Brett, in partnership with high-technology component manufacturer Kegelmann Technik, has developed a sustainable kitchen console made from Sappi Symbio.
Sappi Symbio combines high-quality cellulose from woodfibre and thermoplastics, explains Sappi biotechnology products subsidiary Sappi Biotech.
The benefits of Sappi Symbio include a natural look, a soft touch, high rigidity and strength together with a lower environmental footprint, Sappi reports.
Frankfurter Brett and Kegelmann Technik collaborated closely with Sappi to introduce the new console, which is an accessory for the patented cutting board product family, Sappi notes.
“We chose Sappi's material because the feel of the material is very appealing and we think it is important to optimise conventional materials in terms of environmental compatibility. Sappi and Kegelmann have done a very good job realising our ideas into new products,” says Frankfurter Brett CEO Johannes Schreiter.
“People worldwide are seeking sustainable, scalable and responsible alternatives to nonrenewables. Against this backdrop, and together with our partners, we are working to provide powerful everyday solutions made from renewable resources.
“The new cutting board consoles based on Sappi Symbio highlight the success of this approach,” says Sappi Biotech executive VP Louis Kruyshaar.
