Lignol Energy and UK’s Kingspan in joint product development deal

Lignol Energy and UK’s Kingspan in joint product development deal

Ethanol and biorefining group Lignol Energy Corporation (TSX-V: LEC) announced an agreement with UK construction prodocts supplier Kingspan Group PLC (LSE: KGP) for the joint development of commercial applications incorporating Lignol's class of High-Purity Lignin and lignin derivatives (HP-L lignin) into various products.

The agreement establishes a program to incorporate Lignol's renewable HP-L lignin into Kingspan's products, utilizing HP-L lignin as a replacement for some of the raw materials presently used in Kingspan's products.

Kinsgspan director Peter Wilson commented: “We are interested in exploring potential applications for renewable sustainable materials such as Lignol's HP-L lignin within our business for several key reasons, including reducing the business' carbon footprint."

In converting non-food cellulosic biomass feedstocks, such as agricultural residues and forestry waste, into ethanol, the Lignol biorefining process fractionates the biomass and extracts lignin, which naturally occurs in all cellulosic biomass, to produce a range of unique HP-L lignin materials. These compounds have been shown to have application in a wide range of industrial products, with a consequent reduction of greenhouse gas emissions.
