At Copernicia Materials, we help you discover transformative materials from renewable resources.

Waxes: Carnauba wax is derived from the leaves of the palm tree known as Copernicia Prunifera. The wax hard and features a high melting melt and therefore commonly used in industrial, chemical, and engineering applications.

Carbons: Carbon is one of the most versatile elements because it forms the backbone of everything from organic life to advanced material science. It can manifest as soft graphite, ultra-hard diamond, or high-performance nanomaterials.

Woods: The word “lumber” often refers to solid wood, which can be milled from a tree, as opposed to be manufactured (e.g., plywood). Hardwood comes from a deciduous tree, such as oak or maple. Softwood comes from a conifer tree, such as pine. The differences between these trees is their physical hardness. We can help you select the proper wood for your application.

Composites: These are plastics that are strengthened through the addition of fibers, fillers, particulates, powders and/or other matrix reinforcements to provide improved strength, stiffness, thermal, and other types of properties for various uses and applications. Such materials can often be compression molded. We can help you select a composite to meet your needs.
