PLEXIGLAS® proTerra

Lower carbon footprint with proven high performance: PLEXIGLAS® proTerra molding compounds

We offer our customers two different ways to lower their product carbon footprint: PLEXIGLAS® proTerra M5 contains mechanically recycled PMMA, while in PLEXIGLAS® proTerra 8N, fossil resources have been replaced with raw materials certified under ISCC PLUS*.

All Röhm products with a significantly reduced CO2 footprint, that were made from sustainable raw materials, that make a significant contribution to promote the circular economy and that save resources, such as raw materials, energy or water, qualify for the proTerra brand family.
