Agaveplast Composite Bioresins are a plant-based alternative to immediately reduce your reliance on fossil-fuel resin and reduce

the carbon footprint from a variety of HDPE, LDPE, LLDPE, PP, & TR products.

  • Masterbatch for multi-use and disposable products
  • USDA Biobased Certified (ASTM 6866)
  • Carbon negative 100%* less CO2 than traditional resins
  • Replace fossil-fuel-based resins up to 40%
  • Lower carbon footprint up to 81%
  • Works with all injection/roto/blow molding processes
  • Recyclable
  • Food safe, GRAS by FDA
  • *Based on average Cradle to Gate Lifecycle Assessment comparison of 1 KG of Agaveplast 50 HDPE, LDPE, LLDPE, PP versus 1 KG of HDPE, LDPE, LLDPE, PP

The Benefits of Agave

  • Agave fiber is a carbon-negative material.
  • Agaves sequester 2.94 kgs of CO2 per kg of agave.
  • Agaves actively remove “new” carbon (C-14) from the environment as they grow.
  • Agaves are biorenewable, so they will regenerate and, in the process, continue sequestering carbon in the environment.
  • Agaves are biowaste, so instead of being composted or burned for fuel, we utilize them for reducing reliance on fossil-fuel resins.

Agaveplast is a more sustainable solution than Post Consumer Recycled (PCR) plastic
