7 million tons of wood processed each year Medium Density Fiberboard Particle Board Oriented Strand Board (MDF) (PB) (OSB) 25 plants…3 continents… 1.3 MM€… 4000+ employees… 50+ years in the wood business 7 million tons of wood processed each year

High Aspect ratio: L/D > 20 & 0,45 mm after injection Re-Inventing Wood in Composites…. High Aspect ratio: L/D > 20 & 0,45 mm after injection ECONOMIC FILLER VALUE-ADDED REINFORCEMENT

BENEFITS TECHNOLOGY HIGH ASPECT RATIO WOOD REFINING SURFACE TREATMENT BENEFITS HIGH ASPECT RATIO IMPROVED DISPERSION These are the fibres after compounding and injection in the range of 0,3 to 0,4 mm. Equivalent to short glass fiber. Aspect ratio of about 20. The explanation why we could maintain the aspect ratio is the ability of our dice to easily release into individual fibres in the extruder, typically double screw co-rotating extruders. This is achieved through a perfect covering of fibres by less than 5% of additives. So Woodforce is 95% wood. Mr Koch from the VTI showed yesterday very interesting microscopic pictures of WPCs. We do have carried out such analyses on products made from woodforce containing compounds, and we can observe optimal dispersion and improved homogeneity.

Compounders are strategic in our Business Model Sonae Industria manufactures & sells a mass-produced engineered wood fibre, with a short supply chain, a consistent quality and sustainable economics..... .....to a global network of compounding experts, ready to deliver customized solutions for injection molders and OEMs looking for performing & sustainable solutions. Sonae Compounders Injectors OEMs
