Rodenburg Biopolymers is your partner in biobased biodegradable compound development and production.
We partner up over the full value chain to co-create and deliver solutions that match standard and tailor made demands.
Co-creation is our strength. We supply raw materials, but most importantly we partner-up and create product solutions over the whole product chain. From production to consumption and onto disposal.
Rodenburg’s activities started in 1945, shortly after the war. Arie Rodenburg started with trading of plant derived products. First to private individuals, but once the market began to grow, business to industries expanded.
RODENBURG BIOPLASTICS
In 2000 we started experimenting with bioplastics. Still based on potato waste streams; but now using high tech technology and innovation, focussing on the second-generation feedstock. We made a shift in industry, though building on the valuable – 70 years solid – experience and network.
In 2000 we found to be ahead of our time as the bioplastic market still needed to mature. Nevertheless Rodenburg kept investing in highly innovative extrusion production processes, optimisation and extensive R&D. And now, that the market is ready, our investments are paying off: we are at the front of biobased technology, experts in biobased biodegradable compound development and production.
We consider co-creation as our strength and see partnerships as one of the success factors in the bioplastic industry. Today, the third generation is in lead, with a clear vision for the future. Sustainability is the core of our company and we commit to business with impact.
Rodenburg Biopolymers is based in Oosterhout, The Netherlands. Close to the ports of Antwerp and Rotterdam, making the location perfect for maritime transport and very convenient at the so called gateway to Europe.
In 1998 we started the construction of the factory and the pilot plant was realized that same year. Followed by the large scale production plant in 2001. The current site setup includes extended laboratory facilities, high-tech equipment for tests in various product categories, and has an annual extrusion capacity over 60.000MT. The site setup ensures flexibility and scalability, to provide excellent customer service and high quality performance. Rodenburg Biopolymers compounds can be converted with most common manufacturing processes.
We valorize side stream products from the potato processing industry.
