With its finishing products for the wallpaper industry , Minden-based company, Follmann , has the means to create the right chemistry in your home. A contributory factor in the success of the speciality chemicals company is its competent research department for improving existing products and developing new ranges

Follmann develops „green blowing agent“ for hot-embossed wallpapers

Azodicarbonamide – a powdered agent used, for example, for foaming polymer compositions in the manufacture of wallpapers – is on REACH’s candidate list of substances of concern and could therefore be classified as dangerous.

The wallpaper sector is searching for an alternative. Follmann’s experts in the research department are also working flat out on this. The company has now been able to prove through extensive testing that there is a green solution for application in hot-embossed wallpaper.

Follmann will be providing further insights into the subject of „green blowing agents“ at Heimtextil, the trade fair for home and contract textiles, in Frankfurt am Main between 8 and 11 January 2014. Visitors can also look forward to seeing the new design possibilities for wallpapers, presented in the form of a new edition of the wallpaper calendar.
