A high performing, durable plant-based plastic with multiple end-of-life options.
About
Floreon are an award-winning sustainable materials technology company. Floreon‘s unique patented formulations take a plant-based plastic (PLA) and enhance its performance, making it over ten times tougher that standard unmodified PLA. Improving the performance of PLA makes it suitable for a far wider range of applications such as automotive, consumer electronics and horticulture. This provides brands with an innovative way to reach their sustainability goals with a renewable alternative to oil-based plastics. The performance of Floreon allows it to compete with traditional oil-based plastics, offering up to six times lower carbon footprint than ABS, a common oil-based plastic. Floreon also provides a range of end-of-life options including chemical recycling, mechanical recycling and industrial composting. Ten years of research and development have been put into Floreon to bring you a renewable plant-based plastic, that gives you the sustainable solution to replace the oil-based plastics that are contributing to climate change.
Key Benefits
Floreon offers up to six times lower carbon footprint than a standard oil-based plastic, helping brands to increase their sustainability. Floreon is durable so it can compete with the traditional plastics we are so used to. Our material is also renewable because it derives from sources such as corn and sugar beet, so we are not draining finite resources such as oil.
Applications
Anywhere that oil-based plastics are used, Floreon can be used. This means Floreon is suitable, for example, for use in automotive in vehicle bodes, and in consumer electronics such as a keyboard or plug. Floreon's applications stretch beyond single-use such as film for packaging, to durable applications.
