Cellulose fibers are obtained from a wide variety of renewable, plant-based raw materials.
Fields of Application for the Functional ARBOCEL® Cellulose
JRS makes the many functional properties, which nature has created in the plant world, accessible to almost all sectors of modern industry.
Automotive
Easier, functional, recyclable - ARBOCEL® fiber additives, cellulose fibers and fine cellulose products take these claims into account - in novel material, component and manufacturing processes
Asbestos Substitution
Functional cellulose fibres as a replacement for materials which are classified as dangerous, such as substitutes for asbestos.
Construction Chemistry
Functional cellulose fibers for chemical construction products, such as smoothing compounds, fillers, tile adhesives and plasters. Dispersion-based and mineral systems, bituminous applications.
Hydroseeding
Fast, efficient planting. Hydroseeding is used in road construction, horticulture and landscaping. The principle has been copied from nature.
Chemistry
As a competent technology partner with regard to functional plant fiber applications, we are an intermediary between the worlds of industrial applications and the many good ideas which emerge from the functional wealth found in nature.
Enzymes
Today, enzymes are used in many areas of modern life. Amongst other things, enzymes are used in laundry detergents, animal feed and for the manufacture of bioethanol.
Excipients
Powdered cellulose is used as an economic, inert carrier material in tabletting and capsule filling. ARBOCEL® powdered cellulose improves tablet hardness and disintegration time – also, in combination with VIVAPUR® MCC.
Filtration
Highly pure, odourless and natural fibers which are neutral to taste made from specially prepared quality cellulose material. Mechanically and chemically very stable, insoluble in almost all media and virtually pH-neutral. The organic, highly efficient alternative to diatomaceous earth and Pertite.
Animal Nutrition
ARBOCEL® raw fiber sources for modern animal nutrition - highly functional, healthy – and scientifically proven!
PU Leather
Cellulose-based products: Innovative and proven concepts and products for forward-looking, sustainable asphalt road construction.
Road Construction
Cellulose-based products: Innovative and proven concepts and products for forward-looking, sustainable asphalt road construction.
Diatomaceous Earth Replacement
ARBOCEL® cellulose fibers have established themselves as equivalent, if not superior in technical functional solutions in many industrial applications. The exclusion of health hazards and/or complete recyclability makes JRS cellulose products the ideal 'green' replacement for diatomaceous earth.
Plastics
JRS plant fiber products offer many starting points for use in modern plastic products!
Paper and Cardboard Industry
Functional ARBOCEL® process fibers and fiber additives for the paper and cardboard industry.
Welding Electrodes
ARBOCEL® cellulose fibers are used for coating high-quality welding electrodes and serve as process fibers, as well as protective gas-formers, when using these electrodes for welding.
Benefits of ARBOCEL® Cellulose Fibers
Renewable Raw Material
Biodegradable
CO2-neutral
Recyclable
Sustainable: Biopolymer Cellulose
Cellulose is the most abundant organic substance in nature.
When it is generated under the influence of sunlight, it binds large amounts of CO2.
The Natural Process of Cellulose Formation:
Water/H₂O + Sunlight + CO₂
Cellulose + Oxygen/O₂
