Emeline Pedoni: The rise of bio-based coatings is transforming the development of polyurethanes (PU), particularly in the automotive industry, which is seeking sustainable solutions. However, these materials remain more expensive and must meet the sector’s high technical requirements. Pedoni: Polyurethanes (PU) have been used for decades for their excellent mechanical, chemical, and aesthetic properties. The integration of bio-based materials also makes it possible to move towards a more sustainable and carbon-free chemistry. Mäder Group is making this innovation a priority by developing isocyanate-free formulations that meet current technical, regulatory, and environmental requirements.
