Floreon
Innovative Plant Based Plastics. Breaking Bio-Tech Boundaries.
What is Floreon?
Floreon is a plant-based plastic, derived from crops such as corn and sugar cane, making it a renewable alternative to oil-based plastics with up to 7 times lower carbon footprint. Our available grades are Dura-Tech, Bio-Tech and Therma-tech, there is a Floreon grade suitable for your specific application.
Why is Floreon different?
We are an award-winning sustainable materials technology company that has developed a unique patented formulation to take a plant-based plastic (PLA) and enhance its performance; allowing it to compete with engineering polymers in several demanding applications while having a much lower carbon footprint.
Floreon can be used in electrical applications with our specialist formula with added flame retardance called Therma-Tech, and your product can be held to the same tough standards you expect with our durable grade, Dura-Tech. For disposable applications we’ve developed Floreon Bio-Tech, which will degrade in industrial composting along with food waste where traditional mechanical recycling is not an option.

Floreon Therma Tech Flame Retarded Grade
Polymer Name: Polylactic Acid (PLA)
Additives Included: Flame Retardant, Impact Modifier, Nucleating Agent
Labeling Claims: Biodegradable, Plant-Based, Recyclable, From Renewable Resources
Processing Methods: Extrusion, Injection Molding, 3D Printing
Density: 1260.0 - 1260.0 kg/m³
Floreon Therma Tech Flame Retarded Grade is a PLA based compound intended for durable applications requiring flame retardancy. This developmental grade contains a flame retardant, impact modifier, nucleating agent. The material is based on PLA and is designed as a drop in replacement for ABS in injection molding, extrusion and 3D printing. Drying of the material is recommended to ensure melt stability and limit degradation of the material during processing.
