Manufacturer of the bio-based engineering plastic DURABIO™

Mitsubishi Chemical Corporation is one of the world's leading companies in the field of high-performance materials and innovative plastic solutions. With decades of experience in research and development, the company focuses on sustainable technologies and materials that meet the growing demands of modern industries.

A prime example of this innovative strength is DURABIO™— a partially bio-based, transparent engineering plastic made from isosorbide. The material combines sustainability with exceptional performance and opens up new possibilities for sophisticated design and technology applications.

DURABIO™ combines the beneficial properties of polycarbonate (PC) and polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA), and is also bio-based. The material offers outstanding impact resistance as well as high heat and weather resistance. Compared to other transparent engineering plastics, it offers particularly high transparency with very low optical distortion. This combination makes the material unique and ideally suited for high-quality applications with the most demanding optical requirements.

DURABIO™ has already proven itself in numerous demanding applications. These include high-quality automotive interior components, front displays, touchscreens, and other applications in the fields of modern electronics and functional surfaces. Thanks to its combination of aesthetics, durability, and sustainability, DURABIO™ makes an important contribution and is available in Austria through Plastoplan Kunststoffe.
