EQS-Adhoc: REPLOID Group AG: BAERLOCHER becomes a shareholder in REPLOID and develops a strategic partnership for the upcycling of biogenic waste streams for use in biopolymers.

Wels, 29.08.2025

REPLOID Group AG from Austria and Eisbaer Vermögensverwaltung GmbH, with its affiliated company BAERLOCHER GmbH, a leading international manufacturer of additives for the plastics industry based in Germany, are planning to establish a strategic partnership following their recent acquisition of a stake in REPLOID.
As part of a cooperation, BAERLOCHER is investigating the use of insect ingredients as a sustainable alternative to vegetable oils and animal fats in order to increasingly integrate the utilisation of organic residues into the company's own circular economy principles. With the help of REPLOID's technical innovation, new, forward-looking standards are to be set in this area.
Together, both companies aim to develop circular and regionally sourced products in order to conserve natural resources and revolutionise the use of organic waste materials in both economic and ecological terms. A planned joint venture is intended to help drive forward the sustainable development of the industry in order to take a leading role in the market for innovative, biodegradable biopolymers.
