Frequently asked questions (FAQ)
ENTRON eco Compounds

ENTRON eco compounds are high-quality recycled polyamides (PA 6 and PA 6.6) made from recycled material. Ideal for technical applications in various industries, these polyamide compounds offer an environmentally friendly alternative to conventional polyamides.
Advantages include reduction in CO₂ emissions of up to 90% compared to virgin material, a high degree of strength, abrasion resistance, good sliding properties, and chemical resistance. They are thermally resistant at temperatures ranging from ‑30 °C to 100 °C and are suitable for extrusion and injection moulding.
ENTRON eco compounds are used in the agricultural and furniture industries, in vehicle, aircraft, mechanical and electrical engineering, for household appliances, for power tools, and in the construction industry. Thanks to their versatility, they are suitable for a wide range of technical applications.

Various data sheets are available for different compounds, including ENTRON eco A GF50 NC, ENTRON eco A GF35 NC, ENTRON eco A GF30 NC and more. These contain detailed information on the technical specifications and possible applications.

ENTRON eco compounds are made from recycled polyamide (PA 6 and PA 6.6). These materials and the incorporated additives (such as glass fibres) are carefully selected and tested to ensure consistent quality and performance.
Using recycled polyamide significantly reduces the carbon footprint. ENNEATECH relies on end-to-end process controls to ensure that every batch meets the highest quality standards while minimising the environmental impact.
Recycled polyamide offers similar mechanical and chemical properties to virgin material, but with a higher degree of resource conservation and a significant reduction in CO₂ emissions. This makes it a sustainable and ecological choice for industrial applications.
Extensive laboratory testing is carried out on each batch, including tests for impact and tensile strength, viscosity, moisture, material characterisation, and thermal properties — all to ensure that the compounds meet the highest quality requirements.
ENTRON eco compounds provide reliable and certified performance, high mechanical strength, and thermal resistance. They make it possible to produce lighter components with reduced wall thickness, which reduces costs, material usage, and the carbon footprint. Custom formulations can also be developed.

ENNEATECH optimises energy consumption through the use of modern energy management systems, energy-efficient machines, and renewable energies such as solar energy. Continuously monitoring and improving energy efficiency in all production processes helps ENNEATECH contribute to the reduction of overall energy consumption.

ENNEATECH promotes sustainable development by integrating recycled materials into its products, implementing environmentally friendly production methods, and collaborating with research institutions to develop innovative recycling technologies. The company is committed to maintaining high environmental standards and thus contributes to the reduction of waste and the conservation of natural resources.

ENNEATECH ensures transparency by providing comprehensive environmental data and product information. This includes Environmental Product Declarations (EPD) and Product Carbon Footprints (PCFs) which provide detailed information on the environmental impact and CO₂ emissions of its products. This data is regularly updated and made publicly available.

DIN SPEC 91481 defines requirements for the classification of recycled plastics according to data quality levels, which facilitates the trade and use of polyamide recyclates. It ensures standardised data collection and transfer, thereby improving transparency and traceability along the value chain. This promotes acceptance and demand for recycled materials and supports the circular economy within the plastics industry.

The difference between polyamide compounds and polyamide raw polymers lies in their composition and application.

ENTRON eco granules are a raw polymer (basic polyamide) that is produced directly from the extrusion of polyamide waste (PIR). These raw polymers have the basic properties of polyamide, such as high strength, good abrasion resistance and chemical resistance, but without modifications or additives. They are often used as a starting material for compounding or for unmodified plastic parts. They can be used in a wide range of applications, but without further modification they are often not ideal for specific, application-related requirements.

ENTRON eco compounds are polyamide granulates that have been modified with various additives or fillers to improve certain properties or give them new properties. Compounds can have customised properties such as increased stiffness, improved thermal conductivity, reduced moisture absorption, increased impact strength, flame retardant properties or improved processability. They are particularly useful for specialised applications where specific mechanical, thermal or electrical properties are required. Examples include automotive parts, electrical and electronic components, industrial equipment and consumer goods.

Summarised
ENTRON eco granulates (raw polymers) are unmodified basic polyamides.

ENTRON eco compounds are modified versions of the raw polyamide polymers, optimised for special requirements and applications.

Recycled polyamide – the foundation for strong components

ENNEATECH uses recycled polyamide to manufacture its components. The material, based on recycled products, achieves high impact strength (> 120 KJ/m²) and notched impact strength (>15 KJ/m²), without using elastomers or foreign polymers. The ENTRON eco compounds achieve values that are comparable to those of compounds based on new materials.

Recycled polyamide – a sustainable choice

At ENNEATECH, we use recycled polyamide (PA6) to provide a sustainable solution. As an experienced manufacturer of recycled plastics, we have decades of experience in processing PA 6 and PA 6.6 and ensure consistent material quality and delivery reliability. Thanks to end-to-end process control that closely monitors every batch, we can achieve higher mechanical strength, which in turn leads to lower component wall thicknesses, reducing costs, materials and the CO2 footprint.

Advantages of recycled polyamides

ENNEATECH prides itself on its ability to produce high-quality recycled polyamides (PA6) to meet customer requirements. Our input material goes through an incoming goods quality inspection to ensure that it meets the necessary requirements. The different fractions are then mixed to produce a homogeneous starting material. Our lab technicians test each batch for impact and tensile strength, viscosity, MFI, moisture, material characterisation, thermal properties and more to ensure our recycled polyamide meets the highest quality standards.
