Protecting Rainforests: Openair® Plasma enables use of high-quality plastic alternatives in mobile home interiors
Lightweight
construction is a specially challenging criterion in the manufacture
of mobile homes as well, making lightweight and moisture-resistant
materials a necessity for their interiors.
Laminated interior of a mobile homeHigh-quality
interiors for mobile homes are still largely composed of endangered
rainforest woods, such as obechi. These trees cannot be cultivated
and their harvesting represents predatory destruction of natural
habitat.
Surface
pretreatment with Openair® plasma makes it possible to manufacture
components from alternative materials like polyurethane high-density
foam. To meet the decorative requirements for furniture components,
high-density foam elements are laminated with high-quality furniture
films. Openair® Plasma ensures secure and durable bonding without
using bonding agents, like primers. The high-density polyurethane
parts are not only very good looking; they exceed rainforest woods in
lightness and durability.
