The Craft Behind Our Eco-Friendly Innovation

Recycled Resin: A Sustainable Revolution

The magic of our R-Collection starts with the material: recycled resin, specifically post-consumer recycled resin (PCR). It's a fancy way of saying we use recovered PP from electronic waste, transforming it into high-quality resin. It’s not just recycling; it’s a rebirth of materials.

Recycled Resin: A Sustainable Revolution

Expertise Meets Sustainability

Our supplier isn't just any manufacturer. They're wizards in creating customized, engineered resins. With control over the entire process, from feedstock separation to resin synthesis, they bring 75 years of expertise to the table. The result? A thermoplastic resin that redefines the capabilities of post-consumer plastics.

Exceeding Expectations with 100% Recycled Polypropylene

By focusing solely on 100% recycled Polypropylene, they've achieved something remarkable: a recycled resin that boasts impressive structural integrity, wear-resistance, and impact resistance. This isn’t just any material; it’s one that stands toe-to-toe with virgin PP in mechanical performance, ease of processing, and looks.

Redefining the Standards for Eco-Friendly Protection

Our new resin doesn't just match the properties of traditional plastics; it’s a viable, more sustainable alternative. And here’s the kicker: NANUK is the first to bring you a post-consumer, military-certified case. We're not just part of the change; we're leading it.
