karuun® 3D

Robust fibres transformed into stable spherical objects – predestined to replace artificial composite materials such as fibreglass.

Unprecedented three-dimensional formability made possible by precisely aligned longitudinal fibres and capillaries, and a robust, waterproof, 3D cellulose nonwoven fabric. Squeeze, pull and stretch – thanks its to organic dynamics, karuun® 3D can be flexibly adapted for custom applications. Not only does this reduce weight, it also makes karuun® 3D an excellent alternative to plastic and an ideal material for technical veneers.

With these technical properties karuun® 3D is a particularly exciting option in the field of green mobility and as a replacement for plastic.​
