hubergroup Chemicals to showcase groundbreaking bio-based Oligomers for industrial UV-coatings at RadTech 2025
Hubergroup Chemicals, a leading specialist in resins and specialty chemicals for the coatings industry, will unveil its latest innovation at this year’s RadTech UV+EB Technology and Conference in Detroit, Michigan: high-performance, bio-based UV-Oligomers tailored for industrial applications.
They are designed to minimize environmental impact while delivering high performance across various applications. Based on renewable raw materials with certified C-14 content, these Oligomers respond to the growing demand for sustainable raw materials in the coatings and inks industry. With comparable performance to conventional fossil-based products, they deliver excellent durability, reactivity, and chemical resistance to stress factors – while significantly reducing environmental impact.
hubergroup offers a versatile portfolio, including:
- Polyester Acrylates with 38% bio-based content
- standard Epoxy Acrylates with 20% bio-based content
- and Epoxidized Soybean Oil Acrylates containing up to 82% bio-based content
All materials are developed to align with current environmental regulations and come with third-party certification verifying their actual bio-based carbon content – making them a credible and impactful solution to reduce fossil-based raw materials in the supply chain.
“Sustainability in coatings is not just about reducing fossil resources – it’s about balancing performance, regulatory compliance, and environmental responsibility,” says Franziska Trapp, Technical Marketing Manager Coating Chemicals at hubergroup. “We’ve seen a strong surge in demand for bio-content products and received significant interest in product sampling. At RadTech, we’ll be showcasing our full portfolio of sustainable, bio-based UV-Oligomers and highlighting their application across various industrial coatings.”
This marks just the beginning – hubergroup Chemicals continues to push the boundaries in UV-curable chemistry, expanding its portfolio with new functionalities, broader application profiles, and innovations tailored to premium market demands, including solutions for high-end plastic applications and lower/medium functionality ranges.
