Key Sustainability Features of Estane TPU
Bio-Based Content
The Estane ECO TPU series incorporates renewable materials, with bio-based content ranging from 20% to 69%, certified according to ASTM D6866.
Biomass Balance Approach
The Estane RNW TPU line utilizes mass-balanced biomass feedstocks, reducing reliance on fossil-based sources while maintaining the quality and performance of standard petroleum-based resins.
Reduced Carbon Footprint
Implementing sustainable feedstocks in Estane RNW TPU products has achieved up to a 59% reduction in product carbon footprint, contributing to lower greenhouse gas emissions.
Performance Consistency
TPUs deliver the same high-quality performance as traditional TPUs, ensuring that sustainability enhancements do not compromise material integrity.
