Covation Biomaterials Launches BioPTMEG at Chinaplas 2025
In an exciting unveiling at Chinaplas 2025, Covation Biomaterials LLC announced the launch of its latest innovation,
CovationBio® bioPTMEG. This advanced polytetramethylene ether glycol (PTMEG) marks a significant step forward in sustainable materials, demonstrating powerful performance while notably reducing its environmental impact.
A Breakthrough in Biomaterials
CovationBio's bioPTMEG functions as an eco-friendly substitute for petroleum-based PTMEG, empowering manufacturers to decrease their reliance on non-renewable resources without compromising on the quality expected in demanding applications. This includes products such as spandex, polyurethanes, and thermoplastic elastomers.
Among its numerous sustainability benefits, bioPTMEG offers:
- - Significantly lower greenhouse gas emissions compared to fossil-based alternatives.
- - 100% bio-based content sourced from annually renewable resources.
- - Utilization of feedstock like corncobs that do not interfere with primary food sources.
- - A marked reduction of dependency on fossil fuels.
Additionally, the seamless integration of bioPTMEG into current manufacturing processes enables clients to transition to a bio-based raw material with minimal adjustments in production methods.
Vision for the Future
Chairman Feifeng You expressed CovationBio's commitment to action, stating, "As a force of nature, CovationBio's vision is to build a sustainable, decarbonized materials industry. We are thrilled to introduce CovationBio® bioPTMEG, which utilizes carbon captured by plants from the atmosphere to create materials that enhance life quality. Our ongoing production efforts are aimed at reducing our carbon footprint as our obligation to upcoming generations." He emphasized the need for collaboration to foster a sustainable and regenerative materials sector.
Construction and Future Plans
Plans for a facility in Jiangsu Province are on track, with mechanical completion anticipated by the end of 2025 and commercial production expected to commence in early 2026.
