PolymerR published a study showing that the label has no answer and the claim dies after tooling.

From Material Concept to Stable Industrial Production We support organizations developing or improving polymer-based materials and products when performance, manufacturing stability, industrialization, regulatory requirements, or environmental objectives become difficult to manage internally. Our work covers the full development cycle—from problem diagnosis and development strategy to formulation design, process optimization, industrial validation, and technical decision-making. We help organizations reduce technical uncertainty, accelerate development, and make more robust material and product decisions. Core areas of expertise include: • Technical feasibility assessment • Structured development roadmapping • Material selection and formulation development • Compatibility engineering for blends, compounds, and recycled-content systems • Process optimization in compounding, extrusion, and injection molding • Scale-up and industrialization support • Product Carbon Footprint (PCF) and Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) • Sustainability-driven material innovation We focus on translating complex technical challenges into practical, commercially relevant solutions that perform under real manufacturing conditions. PolymerR operates through a network-oriented collaboration model. When projects require specialized testing, pilot-scale validation, compounding, extrusion, injection molding, material characterization or other technical services, activities can be coordinated through selected industrial and research partners in Germany, Spain, and other European locations. This allows clients to access the most suitable expertise, equipment, and capabilities required for the specific project while maintaining a single technical lead. PolymerR is led by Dr. Nikola Kocic, a chemical engineer with more than 20 years of international industrial R&D experience gained in Germany and Spain, including senior technical roles at SKZ – German Plastics Centre and Lubrizol Advanced Materials.
