OCSiAl has pioneered the first-ever industrial packaging for single wall carbon nanotubes. Drawing on years of expertise, the company has transitioned from plastic barrels to 12-liter bags for its TUBALL™ nanotube powder. This innovation has significantly reduced packaging weight, increased product volume per pallet up to two times, and cut transport-related CO₂ emissions by 50%. This innovative packaging is user-friendly and fully complies with US and EU safety standards for chemical storage and transportation, maintaining product quality.
As the leader in graphene nanotube production, OCSiAl is committed to continuous innovation—advancing technologies while seeking solutions to minimize CO2 emissions. The company embraces a sustainable approach by incorporating recycled and reusable materials in its packaging solutions. The packaging for TUBALL™ MATRIX graphene nanotube concentrates now consists of 50% recycled plastic, while secondary cardboard packaging is made of 70% recycled material. Additionally, the company has expanded its use of 1-tonne IBC containers for the TUBALL™ BATT nanotube dispersion for batteries, further minimizing waste and environmental impact.
OCSiAl regularly optimizes transportation and packaging to reduce logistic costs for customers. It promotes smarter logistics, including load consolidation and route optimization, while the company’s transportation partners provide emissions reports detailing the carbon footprint per shipment.
These initiatives underscore OCSiAl’s commitment to sustainable, cost-efficient practices, reinforcing its leadership in the advanced materials industry.
