Fact.MR

Microfibrillated cellulose fibers, also known as MFC fibers are naturally occurring polymers. Structurally the polymer is made of repeating units of glucose known as cellulose fibers that are stacked together to form fibrils. The polymer fibrils that are of nanometer dimension in diameter and micrometer in length are called MFC fibers. This dimension aspect ratio gives the MFC fibers their greater strength.

Bio-Based Materials –A Changing Industrial Landscape Befits MFC Fiber Market Growth

Microfibrillated cellulose (MFC) fiber is a renewable and biodegradable material. Sustainability of microfibrillated cellulose fibers is ensured by its non-food and non-land competing nature. Industries such as paper and packaging are increasingly utilizing renewable and biodegradable materials such as MFC fibers. Further, beneficial properties of MFC fiber augurs well for end-users in achieving light-weight and stronger paper and packaging solutions.

Aware of these demand trends across industries, manufacturers in the MFC fiber market have ramped up their production capacities of MFC fiber. Apart from paper and packaging industry, increasing application of high quality MFC fiber in cosmetics and pharmaceutical industries has led manufacturers to focus on expanding their existing portfolio of MFC fibers.

Sustainability-Oriented Government Advocacy Underpins Bullish Outlook for MFC Fiber Market

MFC fibers are categorized under next-generation materials that hold potential to replace non-biodegradable materials across industrial applications such as additives, composites, viscosifiers, rheology modifiers, and thickeners. To develop processes with increased production of nano and microfibrillated cellulose fibers at pilot and commercial scales, government agencies have made considerable investments and partnered with research organizations.

Borregaard has received EUR of 25 million EU funding for the development and commercialization of Borregaard’s Exilva MFC fiber in 2016. The financial assistance comes from “Horizon 2020 Flagship Programme”- the EU Framework Programme for Research and Innovation. Norske Skog also received funding of NOK 6.5 million from Innovation Norway for enhanced production of MFC fiber.
