Antistick ECO · a product range from Eco-Nova
Rapeseed oil-based release agents for pavers, rollers and troughs
Antistick ECO, made from plant-based raw materials, prevents bitumen and asphalt from sticking to machinery and tools. Manufactured in Schüttorf, supplied in drums or IBCs.
- Not classified as hazardous according to the safety data sheet
- Not classified as dangerous goods under ADR
- Flash point above 150 °C
- 200-litre drum and 1,000-litre IBC
From 1 January 2027 The occupational exposure limit for vapours and aerosols from bitumen (1.5 mg/m³) also applies to the laying of rolled asphalt. In its sector-specific guidelines, BG BAU advises against the use of release agents containing mineral oil.
The series
Which ECO anti-stick coating is suitable?
All three are based on plant-derived raw materials (rapeseed oil methyl ester) and, according to the safety data sheet, are not classified as hazardous. Three questions will help you choose.
1
An automatic sprinkler system with fine nozzles?
Then Antistick ECO 150 LV.
2
Long transport routes, PmB, multiple loadings or long downtimes?
Then Antistick ECO 170.
3
Anything else?
Antistick ECO 150 is the standard choice for most applications.
Antistick ECO 150
The standard for most applications in asphalt construction
- Flash point above 150 °C
- Viscosity: low (low viscosity)
- Manual and automatic
Antistick ECO 150 LV
For automatic spray systems with fine nozzles
- Flash point above 150 °C
- Viscosity: medium
- Fine nozzles, tight filters
Antistick ECO 170
Thicker – for long-lasting adhesion and high temperatures
- Flash point above 170 °C
- Viscosity: high (thick)
- Long transport routes, PmB

Comparison
Rapeseed oil-based or hydrocarbon-based
A factual comparison of our own release agents – based on the information provided in the safety data sheets.
| Antistick ECO 150 / 150 LV / 170 | Antistick 130 / 140 | |
|---|---|---|
| Raw material base | plant-based raw materials (rapeseed oil methyl ester) | Hydrocarbons; at 140, white oil (mineral oil) is also present |
| Classification according to the SDS | not classified as dangerous | GHS08, Hazard, H304, EUH066 |
| Flash point | above 150 °C (ECO 170: above 170 °C) | above 129 °C (130), 137 °C (140) |
| Transport | Not classified as a dangerous good under ADR | Not classified as a dangerous good under ADR |
| Storage | 5–30 °C, frost-free | 5–30 °C |

Laboratory test
Emissions at 140 to 170 °C – we’ll have them measured
Release agents also emit vapours and aerosols at high temperatures. We are therefore having a laboratory measure how much Antistick ECO releases compared with a hydrocarbon-based release agent. As soon as the results are available, we will publish them here – along with the laboratory, method and measurement conditions.
Transition
Four steps to Antistick ECO
1
Use up the remaining stock
Do not mix hydrocarbon-based release agents with Antistick ECO.
3
Insert the test sample
Test 10 or 20 litres on your own premises – on your machine, using your own mix.
4
Planning the season
Delivery in drums or IBCs, tailored to your requirements.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions about release agents
Can Antistick ECO replace a hydrocarbon-based release agent?
In most asphalt construction applications, yes. Use up the remaining stock, flush the plant and test Antistick ECO beforehand using a test quantity of 10 or 20 litres.
Can I mix Antistick ECO with other release agents?
No. Do not mix Antistick ECO with hydrocarbon-based release agents. Flush the tank, pipes and nozzles before switching over.
What happens when there’s a frost?
Store Antistick ECO in a frost-free place at a temperature between 5 and 30 °C. It may thicken if exposed to frost; once warmed up, it is ready for use again.
What changes will there be to the laying of rolled asphalt from 2027?
From 1 January 2027, the occupational exposure limit of 1.5 mg/m³ for vapours and aerosols from bitumen will also apply to rolled asphalt. In its sector-specific guidelines, BG BAU lists the avoidance of mineral oil-based release agents as one of the protective measures.
What sizes are available, and how quickly are they delivered?
Antistick ECO is available in 10, 20 and 60-litre containers, in 200-litre drums and in 1,000-litre IBCs. We will provide you with the delivery date and price in our quotation.
I’ve always ordered from Green4Clean. What’s changing?
The products, item numbers and contact persons remain the same. You can now place your orders directly with Eco-Nova in Schüttorf.
