Bitrez awarded the Manufacturing Innovation Award 2020 by Made in the North West

Bitrez Ltd has been awarded the Manufacturing Innovation Award 2020 by Insider Media ‘Made in the North West Awards’ for their product Curaphen- a pioneering bisphenol A (BPA) -free phenolic resin. Launched in 2013, Curaphen is used for the internal coatings of food and drink packaging.

Following a worldwide health scare regarding the potential harm caused by BPA to humans – with media emphasis directed to expectant mothers and babies – Bitrez developed Curaphen, an alternative polymer to BPA based grades, for use with non-epoxy-based systems.

Not only does Curaphen satisfy new regulations but it also meets desirable processing and performance requirements.
