EFIPORE™

collagen reticular poroplast

we offer unique technology to produce microporous foams from natural leather collagen.

collagen

is a linear protein, which is a main structural component in the extracellular space in the various biologic tissues.

EFIPORE™ has 90 % porosity.
That with collagen structure provides several very good physical and chemical foam properties such as extremely low thermal conductivity, soundproof, absorption for oleophilic liquids, mechanical strength.

EFICUIR™

EFICUIR™ is a new material for the footwear industry. It is made of natural leather collagen with a competitive price to synthetic polymers. Production technology allows fabrication of the parts of any shape.

EFICUIR™ inhibits unique characteristics of genuine leather.

  • high wet adsorption / desorption up to 1200% of material weight
  • high hygienic characteristics
  • water yielding capacity – 95%
  • water vapour permeability
    10 – 20 mg/cm2 hour

POSSIBLE APPLICATIONS — AUTOMOTIVE

EFIPORE™ is an ecofriedly competitive alternative to synthetic porous materials and mineral wools. It can be used as an automotive heat, sound and noise barrier for many vehicle applications.

KEY FEATURES

  • sound insulating
  • thermally insulating (35 mW/K·m)
  • thermally stable (-200 – +125o)
  • dimensionally stable
  • extremely low weight (down to 20 kg/m3)
  • natural leather collagen is eco‑friendly and recyclable
