Customer Story: ULUU - Innovating Bioplastics with Precision and Sustainability
ULUU, a dynamic startup based in Perth, WA, is on a mission to revolutionise the world of bioplastics. Specialising in the development and manufacturing of biobased and biodegradable polymers, their current focus is on producing PHBV (Polyhydroxybutyrate Valerate) bioplastic material. This innovative bioplastic has the potential to reduce reliance on traditional plastics, offering a more sustainable solution for various industries.
Hylec Controls is excited to continue supporting ULUU as they lead the way in bioplastics innovation. We look forward to seeing how their work progresses with the help of the MF1452B, and we’re proud to be part of their mission to create a more sustainable future for the packaging and manufacturing industries.
Stay tuned for more updates as we work together to make a lasting impact on the world of bioplastics!
At the heart of their research and development efforts is the prototyping phase, where ULUU is concentrating on refining the production of PHBV pellets. This step is crucial in advancing their bioplastics technology, ensuring that the material meets the high-quality standards needed for future applications.
To support their cutting-edge work, Hylec Controls is proud to have supplied ULUU with the Wance Melt Flow Indexing machine MF1452B, a high-precision melt flow indexer that plays a key role in their quality control and research processes.
The MF1452B is designed to measure the melt flow rate (MFR) and melt volume rate (MVR) of polymers, providing critical data that helps ensure consistency, reliability, and performance in their bioplastic production.
Hylec's engineer is due to visit ULUU to commission the machine and conduct hands-on training for the ULUU team to ensure they are fully equipped to utilise the MF1452B to its maximum potential. This personalised training is essential for helping the ULUU team get the most out of their new equipment, ensuring smooth integration into their production process and research efforts.
The Wance MF1452B is ideal for ULUU’s needs. It is designed for use in quality control environments, research institutes, and factories, offering reliable performance and high accuracy for testing polymer properties. Whether it’s for in-depth material testing or for refining production processes, the MF1452B will play a key role in ULUU’s journey toward more sustainable, high-performance bioplastics.
