Alufy ECO

Al(OH)₃

Natural Aluminium Hydroxide

Alufy ECO is the trademark of our Natural milled Aluminium Hydroxide flame-retardant fillers. The natural origin of the raw material, together with a production process having a low environmental impact, guarantees its eco-sustainability.

Alufy ECO is the trademark of our natural milled Aluminium Hydroxide flame-retardant fillers.

This product is an eco-friendly flame retardant ATH produced through the milling of a natural mineral, containing more than 90 % of Aluminium Tri-Hydroxide. It has a low environmental impact, because no chemical process and no water consumption are involved in its production.

ALUFY ECO 2 can efficiently replace synthetic ATH in many fields, keeping the same fire performance and very good mechanical properties.
