Environmental protection and economic efficiency in harmony
Customer: Wanhua (China)
The Chinese Wanhua Industrial Group is one of the world’s largest manufacturers of MDI glue. In 2006, the Group founded its subsidiary Wanhua Ecoboard, which works closely with Dieffenbacher to develop and produce sustainable, formaldehyde-free boards from wood and straw.
Since 2015, when Wanhua Ecoboard signed the first supply contract for a straw-based particleboard plant, the company has relied on our expertise in alternative raw materials and the processing of annual plants and fast-growing woods. In October 2017, the first straw-based particleboard was produced in Chenzhou in the province of Hunan. That’s how we’re harmonizing environmental protection and economic efficiency for Wanhua.
The partnership between Wanhua and Dieffenbacher already covers eight orders for straw-based particleboard, MDF and Fine Surface OSB plants. Six of them are already in operation.
“To meet our commitment to produce environmentally friendly, formaldehyde-free panels made of wood and straw, we continue to rely on Dieffenbacher as one of our most important partners.” Zhao Zhimei (CEO of Wanhua)
