Nordmann is proud to officially launch PARMON® TRISS(1) EnviroPlus, a game-changing innovation in TRISS production that significantly reduces environmental impact while enhancing cost-effectiveness in use and supply chain reliability. Whether it’s B2B or consumer purchasing, buying eco-friendly products often means paying a premium, with TRISS, it’s now the opposite.
Introducing PARMON® TRISS EnviroPlus: Sustainable AND Cost-Effective – Finally, You Don’t Have to Choose

PARMON® TRISS EnviroPlus offers top-tier sustainability without increasing cost - in fact, it’s the lowest cost, highest purity TRISS process on the market today. It’s like getting the green option without the price tag - a win for both your budget and the planet.

TRISS has been a trusted building block in the Medical Device Industry for over 40 years, primarily used as a raw material in the production of contact lenses and medical adhesives.

PARMON® TRISS EnviroPlus takes this proven product and redefines it for modern manufacturing, delivering a low environmental impact solution that aligns with today’s regulatory demands - all without compromising on quality and offering customers significant purchase cost savings, compared with TRISS produced using all alternative manufacturing processes(2).

Designed to support more sustainable manufacturing, EnviroPlus achieves up to 95% reduction in Scope 1–3 greenhouse gas emissions compared to conventional TRISS production(3). It offers 30% higher silicone conversion efficiency, reduced waste generation and improved raw material utilisation. Additionally, the process requires fewer high environmental impact washing reagents and produces less landfill waste, supporting a more circular production model.
