Six products are available through the Goodfellow Green Production initiative, which aims to provide product quality and reduce carbon footprint. This allows customers to focus on research and product design without compromising on quality and it often serves as a creative catalyst for innovative applications.
The product range includes:
- Lightweight metal foams that reduce energy requirements while retaining the physical characteristics of the metal
- Bio-based and biodegradable polymers derived from renewable resources
- Ceramics that are non-toxic
- Composites that decompose naturally without leaving a trace
- “Green” graphene produced by a unique, chemical-free process
- Lead-free solder that can allow the joining of traditionally challenging materials, without flux
Using these materials will help to reduce the impact non-renewable materials have on the environment and minimise the issues we currently face on trying to save the planet.
