Cellular plastic
Cellular plastic is a material that offers almost unlimited freedom in terms of product shape. When designing a product together with the customer, we are able to find the right material for the desired needs.
We serve a wide range of industries across Finland with certified delivery reliability: from health technology to HVAC, thermologistics and food packaging to commercial vehicle manufacturing.
Recyclable and biodegradable EPP materials
We are the first in Finland to introduce biodegradable cellular plastic material. It is a corn starch-based material that can partially replace EPS and EPP plastics in suitable applications. Biodegradable material provides an ecological solution in situations where products cannot be reasonably reused.
Ropes and nets collected from the sea can be used as raw material for Artekno Ocean, which means that 15% of the material is recycled. In addition to ecological alternatives, EPP containing 30% and 100% recycled material is also available.
Cellular plastic products made from different materials
We manufacture cellular plastic products and packaging from both virgin and recycled raw materials. The materials are selected in collaboration with the customer according to the desired properties.
EPP
EPP, or expanded polypropylene plastic, is a durable and lightweight material with excellent resilience and shock absorption properties. Easy to clean and machine washable, this material is particularly suitable for demanding food packaging applications and for use in healthcare technology and various industrial sectors. It also has excellent sound and heat insulation properties.
EPS
EPS plastic (expanded polystyrene), more commonly known as Styrofoam, offers a durable solution, particularly for the construction and transportation industries. EPS plastic has good thermal insulation properties and excellent shock absorption, and is also a very lightweight material.
Biodegradable material
Corn starch-based biodegradable material offers an environmentally friendly alternative to traditional plastic materials. The end product has good heat insulation properties and can be composted industrially.
Artekno Ocean – for cleaner oceans
We are the first in the Nordic countries to develop a cellular plastic material that contains 15% plastic raw material made from plastic waste collected from the sea. This means that the product generates 7% less CO2 emissions compared to the production of virgin material. Artekno Ocean has the same properties as EPP material. In addition to Artekno Ocean raw material, Artekno now also offers EPP containing 30% and 100% recycled material.
Arteknon’s design service is based on the latest technology.
Our design team has extensive experience in cellular plastic materials and their effective use in various industries. 3D design and modeling create an opportunity for interaction between the customer and the design team right from the start of product development. This ensures that the end product is designed to best meet the customer’s needs.
We use modern equipment for the precise manufacture of cellular plastic products. We design and manufacture the components of the end product from several different types of plastic as needed, so that the end product has all the desired properties.
In our hands, information becomes a product – all you need is an idea.
