Floreon® is thrilled to announce that it has been honoured with the esteemed “Innovation in Bioplastics Award 2024” from the Bioplastics Industry Association! This prestigious accolade celebrates Floreon’s groundbreaking Therma-Tech grade, a pioneering bioplastic material distinguished by its exceptional durability and flame-retardant properties. This innovative material is poised to redefine standards in both product manufacturing and industrial applications.


Floreon® biopolymers serve as a sustainable alternative to fossil-based styrenic polymers such as ABS, PC-ABS, and HIPS. Our unique bioplastics boast up to seven times lower carbon emissions while delivering, and in some cases surpassing, the performance characteristics of their traditional counterparts. This award underscores our dedication to advancing bioplastic technology, positioning us at the forefront of the movement towards a more sustainable future.

“Winning this award is a testament to the relentless innovation and commitment of the entire Floreon team,” said Dr. Sandrine Garnier, CEO of Floreon. “We are proud to lead the way in bioplastic advancements, offering the market high-performance, eco-friendly solutions that drive us all towards a greener tomorrow.”


Why Floreon?

Floreon’s technical team has harnessed the potential of Polylactic Acid (PLA) to create a robust line of biopolymers for engineering applications. Unlike conventional PLA, which is typically used for single-use items, our technology transforms it into a highly durable material suitable for diverse applications, including automotive, rail, marine, aviation, electronics, construction, medical, and sporting equipment.



 

The Future

Floreon’s groundbreaking work has recently attracted a major £2.25M investment from leading private equity firms Northern Gritstone and CPI. This investment is a crucial milestone in our journey, enabling us to accelerate the development of our innovative PLA-based compounds and further our mission of transforming the bioplastics industry.



Meet Us At The Advanced Engineering Show

For those seeking a sustainable and durable PLA for your project, visit us at Stand W192 during the Advanced Engineering Show, held on October 30th-31st at the NEC in Birmingham, UK. Additionally, join us to hear Floreon’s Dr. Andrew Gill, as a speaker at this event. Andrew is a leading expert in bioplastics and he will present the latest innovations and industry developments.
