Key Bio-based Product Launches

1. MDO Film with I'm green™ Bio-based PE

The film uses MDO technology on sugarcane-derived polyethylene. It gains stiffness, clear optics, and recyclability. It suits mono-material packaging such as flow packs and stand-up pouches. Braskem developed it with the circular packaging lab Cazoolo and converter FCO Group.

2. Medcol: I'm green™ Bio-based LDPE for Healthcare

The product targets pharmaceutical blow-fill-seal tasks, like making plastic ampoules. It meets strict regulatory needs. The film needs no additives. It stays strong in high temperatures and flows well. A 2023 Life Cycle Assessment shows a -2.27 kg CO₂e per kg carbon footprint. This figure proves its sustainability.

3. I'm green™ Bio-based HDPE for Non-Wovens

This HDPE suits hygiene goods such as diapers and bi-component fibers. It stays low in gel and works stably. It keeps color consistency in spunbond fiber making. An LCA shows a -2.01 kg CO₂e per kg carbon footprint.

4. EVA 21%: Ultra-soft I'm green™ Bio-based Foam

The foam is made with 21% vinyl acetate in ethylene-vinyl acetate. It feels extra soft and is flexible. It fits footwear soles and insoles. It joins renewable origins with strong functions for top consumer goods.

Featured Collaborative Applications

• Polytan: The firm shows the world’s first carbon-zero synthetic hockey turf, Poligras Paris GT zero. It also shows LigaTurf Cross GT zero football turf. Both use I'm green™ bio-based polyethylene. They build sustainable sports surfaces and were used in the Paris 2024 Olympics.

• Bottle Up & Eurobottle: They introduce fully bio-based, reusable bottles. These bottles are made from I'm green™ PE. Their design follows a circular economy. They boost durability and eco-friendliness.

• Veja: The brand presents sneakers with inner layers made from I'm green™ materials. This change joins premium design with high performance.
