Camelina Oil: Sustainability meets performance
Camelina Oil: Sustainability meets performance
The use of sustainable raw materials is becoming increasingly important in the coatings industry. As a regionally available raw material that hardly competes with food production, camelina oil offers new potential for the manufacture of binders and additives. Its cultivation
supports biodiversity, reduces the use of pesticides, and enables resource-efficient agriculture. Comparisons with established vegetable oils prove its performance, while chemical modifications enable adaptation to specific applications. Camelina oil thus opens up a sustainable alternative for high-performance and environmentally friendly coating systems.
