BioMatters #5: High performance plant-based plastics

Loading Events

Join us online as we delve into the world of high performance plant-based plastics, with Floreon.

Join us for an engaging presentation on Floreon’s cutting-edge plant-based engineering plastics, developed by their technical team using Polylactic Acid (PLA) to create a highly robust line of biopolymers for engineering applications. Unlike typical PLA, which is primarily used for disposable items, Floreon has transformed it into a durable, high-performance material suitable for industries like automotive, rail, marine, aviation, electrical & electronic components, building products, medical devices, toys, sports, safety and protection equipment.

Floreon® biopolymers offer a sustainable, drop-in replacement for fossil-based styrenic polymers like ABS, PC-ABS, and HIPS, providing up to seven times lower carbon footprint without sacrificing the physical and mechanical performance. They also help reduce Scope 2 and Scope 3 emissions by enabling lower processing temperatures and offering the potential to reduce part weight and wall thickness, all while maintaining structural integrity.

Floreon’s versatile biopolymers are suitable for a wide range of manufacturing processes including injection moulding, sheet & profile extrusion, 3D printing, films and fibres, thermo/vacuum forming, and foaming. Learn more about our portfolio of patented PLA-based compounds, and explore the key differences between our three grades—Therma-Tech, Dura-Tech, and Bio-Tech—available for sampling and trialling.
