Our innovative technology
NILO's adhesive is engineered to deliver the structural performance required by modern composite wood products, while also addressing regulatory and market demands for reduced formaldehyde emissions and a lower carbon footprint
NILO takes polyethylene (PE) and polypropylene (PP) – two of the world’s most abundant plastic waste streams - and upcycles them into a high-performance adhesive for composite wood products used in furniture and construction.
NILO’s binder offers a commercially viable alternative to help phase out urea formaldehyde adhesives. Better yet, it has a lower carbon footprint and is made from plastic waste that would otherwise pollute our land, water and air.
NILO takes plastic waste types that are not usually recycled (polyethylene and polypropylene) and would otherwise end up in landfill or our oceans.
Using plastic waste as raw material, NILO uses a patented process to produce an industrial adhesive that is clean, safe and is cost competitive.
NILO’s binder is combined with materials like woodchip, date palm and bamboo to produce engineered wood products in a heated press. It can also be used to make other engineered wood products including medium density fibreboard, oriented strand board and plywood.
NILO’s particle board can be reground as feedstock for new board production.
