Biofibre® Silva

97% bio-based bioplastic reinforced with natural wood fibers

Sustainable Innovation

At KUM®, we believe that high performance and environmental responsibility should go hand in hand. With the introduction of our Biofibre® series, we offer a sustainable alternative to traditional plastics — without compromising on the precision and quality you expect from our 6000 series sharpeners.

The foundation of this series is Biofibre® Silva, a cutting-edge bioplastic compound that redefines sustainable manufacturing. It is 97% bio-based and made almost entirely from renewable raw materials, completely avoiding fossil resources. This material consists of a biopolymer matrix reinforced with natural wood fibers and is certified by DIN CERTCO for its biodegradability, helping to significantly reduce long-term environmental waste.

Choosing Biofibre® Silva is a commitment to a greener planet. By utilizing renewable biomass instead of petroleum, our sharpeners achieve a significantly better CO2 balance compared to classic fossil-based plastics. This helps your brand reduce its carbon footprint and meet the growing demand for eco-friendly beauty tools. This globally recognized seal of quality provides you and your customers with the assurance that your products are as sustainable as they claim to be.
