Micro- and nanofibrillated cellulose at a competitive price.

Funded by the aws PreSeed and Seedfinancing programs.


Micro- and nanocellulose.

High mechanical strength.

By shredding the fibers into the nano range, all macroscopic defects are eliminated: the full potential of the material is exploited.

Very large specific surface area.

The extreme specific surface area makes nanocellulose the perfect reaction partner, binder for chemicals and base substrate for medicines.

Can be stored.

Suspended nanocellulose can be stored unrefrigerated for several months.

Universally applicable.

Nanocellulose can be used in many areas: paper and pulp technology; fiber composite materials; Groceries; hygiene products; paints/varnishes; Cement; Medical technology

Biodegradable.

Nanocellulose is sustainable, 100% a natural product. It is biodegradable and non-toxic to fauna and flora.

No health risk.

A general advantage of nanocellulose is that, according to current knowledge, nanocellulose in its various forms is one of a few nanomaterials that is harmless to humans. (Ali Harlin, Research Professor at the VTT Technical Research Center)

Patented manufacturing process.

Jarolim Fasertechnik has developed a new process for producing micro- and nanofibrillated fiber materials. The manufacturing process has great advantages compared to traditional processes as there is no tendency to clogging. All fiber materials can be processed directly and without pretreatment: Currently, mainly long fiber pulp with a fiber length of up to 4mm is processed. Pressure and shear forces in the specially developed nanohomogenizer are set separately: the quality of the nanomaterials is specifically adapted to customer needs.

New applications.

Thanks to our process, it is possible for the first time to use nanocellulose in mass applications such as the paper and pulp industry, paint industry, cement industry, fiber composite material production and many other applications at an economically competitive price.

Scalable production.

The completed pilot plant in Gaspoltshofen demonstrates its feasibility. The system is designed to be fully scaleable: systems with 20 tons/day bonedry production capacity can be implemented.

Pilot plant.

The pilot plant for the production of micro- and nanofibrillated fiber materials is located in Gaspoltshofen (Upper Austria). The system is built to be transportable so that tests can be carried out directly at the customer’s site. The system suspends, shreds, grinds and homogenizes any fiber material. The system consists of a vat with agitator and heating, a refiner, a homogenizer and a cooling system. Specially developed pumps enable the pumping of suspensions with a dynamic viscosity of up to 1000 Pas. The pilot system already processes batches of up to 500 liters of fiber suspension.

Attached laboratory.

The micro-nanofibrillated fiber material is examined microscopically immediately after production. Painting tests with different coating recipes are also possible: the coating can be evaluated using the KIT test.
