CORALIGHT® 600: Durable, high-performance innovation in high-density polyurethane produced by upcycling

DUNA Corradini marks a significant stride in the polyurethane industry with the introduction of CORALIGHT® 600. This innovative board is manufactured via upcycling high-quality secondary production products, thus melding technical performance, sustainability, and aesthetics. The upcycling process, aligned with the 2030 Agenda, transmutes production waste into valuable resources, yielding new products with superior performance. DUNA has established a dedicated facility for industrial upcycling for the production of CORALIGHT® 600, thus actualizing a genuine circular economy.

As for its performance, CORALIGHT® 600 excels with some notable features such as excellent screw retention, low water absorption, and significant resilience.

what is upcycling?

Upcycling, also referred to as creative reuse, is a process aimed at recovering materials or products no longer in use, in order to transform them into materials or products of superior quality or utility. Unlike recycling, which often degrades the quality of materials, upcycling enhances the quality of recovered waste, giving it new life in a creative and innovative manner.

Within the context of the environment and sustainability, upcycling is a key element of the circular economy as it helps reduce the amount of waste ending up in landfills and minimizes the need for the production of new materials. This thereby contributes to reducing the ecological footprint and promotes a more responsible and sustainable consumption.
