Maxxam™ BIO Bio-Based Polyolefin Formulations
Maxxam™ BIO polyolefins are formulated with
bio-based polyolefin resin and/or 10–50% natural
filler from renewable plant sources, including olive
seed based powder and cellulose fiber.
Maxxam BIO polyolefins can be fully customized
to meet specific application needs.
KEY CHARACTERISTICS
Formulated with bio-based resin and/or
10–50% filler from renewable plant sources,
Maxxam BIO formulations:
• Reduce product carbon footprint
• Achieve equivalent performance to standard
polyolefin formulations
• Provide good stiffness, durability, impact
resistance and UV stability
• Deliver good surface finish and are easy to color
• Enable customized performance characteristics
depending on application need
• Offer food contact compliance
MARKETS AND APPLICATIONS
Maxxam BIO formulations are suitable for use across
many industries and applications where traditional
polyolefin materials are used, including:
• Transportation Interior Applications -
Decorative profiles, trunk side liners, pillars,
T-cup
• Industrial - Structural parts, furniture
• Consumer - Household goods, personal care
items, packaging, office supplies, food contact
applications
• Electrical and Electronic – Housings, buttons,
junction boxes
SUSTAINABILITY BENEFITS
• Formulated with bio-based resin and/or
10–50% natural filler
• Utilize natural filler from renewable plant
sources including olive seed based powder
and cellulose fiber
• Offer a lower product carbon footprint
compared to traditional petroleum-based
feedstock
• Can be recycled at end of life
