When will new Green Stuff be ready to launch?
If you are a Green Stuff customer, this is ultimately the question you probably want answering – when will new Green Stuff be ready to launch?
When we set out on this process, the aim was to have a product which could be tested for feedback by Green Stuff users by the end of the summer. The R&D team believe we are on track for that – although there are still several hoops to jump through and no shortcuts to be taken.
The flexibility of the cured material is one of those hoops. And every mix of different Part A and Part B must be left for weeks after curing to assess how it changes over time – with specific focus on that flexibility.
Stringent test runs are also needed of formulations through the extrusion machine. An epoxy putty made in small 50g or 100g test batches does not always come out with the same consistency or properties when produced in bulk.
Once all that is completed, we will then ask Green Stuff users to assess the new putty. Only when they are satisfied that what we have made is as close to original Green Stuff as possible will we look to mass produce and bring it to the worldwide market.
If it all sounds a bit complicated, that is because it is. But despite the challenges, we are confident that new Green Stuff is nearly with us. Watch this space.
