Same great quality. Better PCF values.
Make the switch to SILPURAN® eco 2114 today
SILPURAN® eco 2114 offers a more sustainable solution for your wound-care products. Achieve measurable results right away without modifying your process.
The medical silicone gel adhesives in our SILPURAN® product line are so powerful that a thin layer is all you need. But even just a thin layer of adhesive has the potential to cut emissions.
Our SILPURAN® eco 2114 adhesive will help you reduce your Scope 3 emissions. Just keep producing the formulation you’ve always used. Product quality and performance will remain unchanged.
Switching to SILPURAN® eco 2114 is easy – here’s how you benefit
Lower PCF
(CO2 footprint) than its conventional counterpart:
- Helps you reduce your Scope 3 (3.1 & 3.12) CO2 emissions
- Developed using a mass balance approach
- Certification by a recognized, independent testing body for excellent product transparency
Drop-in solution
Easily integrated into your production process:
- Can seamlessly replace SILPURAN® 2114
- No need to modify your formulation or production process
- Delivers identical specifications, quality and performance
- Guaranteed top quality
REDcert2 certificate
Confirms that fossil raw materials have been replaced with renewable equivalents:
- The REDcert2 certificate can be used as documentation for in-house certification.
Certified and transparent
The ability to trace the renewable raw materials you use in production is crucial. To this end, we have had TÜV Nord validate and confirm the entire production process for SILPURAN® eco 2114 according to the REDcert2 standard.
Top-notch quality combined with technology that conserves resources: the only difference between SILPURAN® eco 2114 and classic SILPURAN® 2114 is source of the methanol. In every other way, SILPURAN® eco 2114 delivers exactly the same quality as its conventional counterpart and can be processed the same as always.
SILPURAN® eco 2114: Q&A
Methanol is an important component in the production of silicone gel adhesives. To create our Eco products, we apply the mass balance approach to replace methanol from fossil sources with biobased methanol.
This method allows us to calculate the amount of biomethanol required, which we then feed into the production process. The biomethanol we use is made from biomass that has been certified as sustainable, i.e., that comes primarily from grass cuttings, straw or sugar beet scraps.
The mass balance approach vs. conventional production methods
The following outlines the Scope 3 emission reductions you can achieve depending on whether your sustainability calculations include biocarbon:
Relative CO2 reduction [in CO2e]1 (based on cradle-to-gate data, 2022). TÜV Rheinland has certified that the method conforms to Together for Sustainability and ISO 14067 standards. We will provide you with the specific calculations for your project upon request.
Yes, the properties and quality of SILPURAN® 2114 and SILPURAN® eco 2114 are identical.
No, you can use SILPURAN® eco 2114 exactly as you use SILPURAN® 2114. Your trusted process will remain unchanged – no need to adapt or revalidate it.
No, since the properties of SILPURAN® eco 2114 are the same as those of SILPURAN® 2114, you can keep your existing formulation.
Yes, SILPURAN® eco 2114 has been certified according to the REDcert² standard using the mass balance approach. You can use this certificate as documentation of in-house certification.
