PolyEarthylene® in Automotive Applications

Verde® Bioresins’ biobased and biodegradable resins present a sustainable alternative to conventional petroleum-based resins, including polyethylene and polypropylene.

Applications

PolyEarthylene® films can be used throughout multiple markets including the food and beverage, agriculture, construction and consumer goods industries. Applications include:

• Thermoformed interior panels
• Caps and closures
• Car accessories
• Protective films on car interior

Benefits

PolyEarthylene® grades are biobased and biodegradable resin that offers several distinct advantages over traditional petroleum-based plastics. Some key benefits:

• FDA Title 21 Food Contact Compliant
• Environmental Sustainability

• • Biobased Composition: PolyEarthylene® is a polyolefin derived from renewable resources, which reduces reliance on fossil fuels and supports a more sustainable materials lifecycle.
  • Biodegradability: Unlike conventional plastics that persist in the environment for hundreds of years, PolyEarthylene® breaks down in landfill conditions, minimizing long-term environmental impact and contributing to waste reduction.
  • Industrial and Curbside Recycling Compatibility: PolyEarthylene® has been tested and verified to be recyclable alongside polyethylene in both industrial and curbside recycling programs, facilitating its integration into existing recycling systems.

• Performance Attributes:

• • Strength and Flexibility: PolyEarthylene® maintains favorable mechanical properties such as dart impact, tensile and tear strength, making it suitable for a range of applications including packaging and protective films.
  • Durability: The resin offers excellent strength and durability, meeting the performance needs of various film applications without compromising quality and allowing for reusability.
  • PolyEarthylene® is designed to process on existing equipment with minimal parameter changes.

• Customizability:

• • It’s not just plastic! Some applications require custom solutions.
  • At Verde® Bioresins we invite you to work closely with our R&D team to create custom formulations of PolyEarthylene® tailored to your specific requirements. Our commitment to innovation and sustainability motivates us to deliver unique solutions that meet the needs of your applications.
