Documented low footprint

Contribution to sustainable living! Prioritizing innovations and activities that can improve the environmental and climate impact of products.

Our products have been proven to have a low climate footprint and provide excellent environmental performance across almost all environmental categories. We have contracted with Norsus, an independent third party, to conduct a life cycle assessment (LCA) based on ISO 14044/48 standards. The LCA analyzes the environmental impact of our products from raw materials to finished goods and monitors how environmental improvements in the value chain can reduce this impact. We prioritize innovations and activities that can improve the environmental and climate impact of our products, such as reducing emissions and waste, and improving water and energy efficiency. The LCA confirms that the negative environmental and climate impacts of our products and processes have decreased over time. 【Other Contributions to Sustainable Living】 ■ Global challenges and sustainable solutions ■ Aspects of sustainability in customer solutions ■ Sustainably managed forests - an eternal resource ■ Commitment to reducing greenhouse gas emissions ■ Commitment to strong innovation *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

What is lignin? Unexpected discoveries have expanded its industrial applications.

―Applications of lignin discovered in the plastic casing of lead-acid batteries― 【Samples available】

Currently, lignin is attracting attention as a powerful biomaterial, but it was previously used only for limited applications. Bolegard is a company that has consistently produced lignin since its early days. One of the applications that supported this early period was lead-acid batteries. Lead-acid batteries were invented in 1859 by the Frenchman Gaston Planté. The current basic structure consists of lead dioxide as the positive electrode, sponge lead as the negative electrode, and dilute sulfuric acid as the electrolyte. Until the first few decades of the 20th century, the containers for battery cells were made of wood. However, with improvements that changed the containers to plastic, a problem arose where the cycle life became shorter. Upon investigating the cause, it was found that lignin was what supported the cycle life of lead-acid batteries. It was discovered that the polymer structure of lignin has excellent functions in inhibiting or dispersing the crystallization of inorganic compounds due to steric hindrance. Subsequently, Bolegard followed a business path of developing lignin-based dispersants suitable for various applications. We are introducing various new applications for lignin. Please take a look at our special page.
