Evonik Highlights Bio-based Polymers at 2026 Pharmapack Paris

This week,Evant Corporationwill participate in Pharmapack Europe 2026 in Paris, focusing on showcasing its latest series of functional additive products. These include solutions with no intentionally added per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS-free), as well as bio-based polymer solutions certified by International Sustainability and Carbon Certification PLUS (ISCC PLUS). This initiative aims to meet the growing demand for compliance and sustainability in the medical plastics market. Specific products are as follows:

Bio-based materials produced using the mass balance approach

Evant Mevopur™ Healthcare Bio-based Polymer SolutionsA product portfolio encompassing masterbatches, functional masterbatches, and ready-to-use compounds, all manufactured from bio-based raw materials, covers polymer types including polypropylene, polyethylene, polycarbonate, acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene (ABS) copolymer, and styrene-based polymers.

Malmö, Sweden; Taoyuan, Taiwan; and Jurong, SingaporeThree Evonik production sites , have all obtained International Sustainability and Carbon Certification PLUS (ISCC PLUS) qualification. This certification indicates that the Mevopur polymer solutions produced at these sites utilize a mass balance-based raw material traceability management system, enabling reliable tracing and precise identification of raw material sources.

Fluorine-free alternative solutions

PFAS-free processing aids for medical tubing and films：Avient Mevopur™ Healthcare Functional AdditivesNew PFAS-free processing aids have been added to our product portfolio, suitable for low-density polyethylene (LDPE) and linear low-density polyethylene (LLDPE) materials. These fluorine-free alternatives effectively address common processing issues in the extrusion of pipes and films, such as die buildup, melt fracture, and sharkskin, and can be used in applications like tubing and pharmaceutical packaging, with performance comparable to traditional fluorinated processing aids.

PFAS-free, Low-Retention Additives for Pipette Tips：Evanterecently launchedMevopur™ PFAS-free low-retention additive for polypropylene pipette tips, featuring an efficient hydrophobic system, enables excellent liquid release, contributing to the reproducibility and accuracy of laboratory testing. This ready-to-use composite material is developed and manufactured according to comprehensive change control procedures, and all its raw materials are pre-tested against relevant standards from the International Organization for Standardization (ISO), the United States Pharmacopeia (USP), and the International Council for Harmonisation of Technical Requirements for Pharmaceuticals for Human Use (ICH Q3D).

Slip/antiblock additives for PET and PETG films ：Evante Here's the direct translation: Launched, a smooth/anti-blocking solution for polyethylene terephthalate (PET) and polyethylene terephthalate glycol-modified (PETG) films used in pharmaceutical and nutraceutical blister packaging, and medical device packaging. This functional masterbatch effectively reduces the coefficient of friction of medical films, enhancing operational convenience during the assembly and use of end products; meanwhile, its production adheres to the rigorous risk management and change control standards of the Mevopur additive series throughout the entire process.

The 2026 Paris International Pharmaceutical Packaging Exhibition is Europe's specialized exhibition focusing on packaging and drug delivery devices. The exhibition will be held from January 21st to 22nd at the Paris Porte de Versailles Exhibition Center.
