Evonik, a supplier of superabsorbent polymers, inaugurated a new application technology center for superabsorbent polymers in Krefeld, Germany. The company invested €1 million ($1.1 million). The new facility strengthens the position of Evonik as an innovative solutions provider for superabsorbent polymers.
 
“Our customers will directly benefit from an even further improved technical service. The service capabilities of Evonik are the industry-wide benchmark and the basis for strong partnerships and development collaborations with our customers,” says Norbert Westerholt, head of Evonik’s Baby Care Business Line.
 
The new laboratory was designed for highly efficient working and testing procedures and will serve hygiene as well as technical superabsorbent applications. The enlarged laboratory allows for the implementation of the newest test methods, which will further strengthen product knowledge and target-oriented innovation efforts. It is equipped for the evaluation of superabsorbent polymers and hygiene articles, e.g. the new EDANA mannequin test for incontinence articles. For the first time, this test allows the application of realistic in-use conditions to the standardized lab evaluation of a broad variety of incontinence items. In addition, the new laboratory is open to customers for training and testing sessions.
 
“As a global leader in superabsorbent polymers, Evonik will continue to provide outstanding support and service to customers to facilitate their innovations,” notes Westerholt.
