Our Vision... MicroGREEN will be a Leader in Developing Advanced Plastic Products for Everyday Uses

OUR ECONOMICALLY AND ECOLOGICALLY VIABLE TECHNOLOGIES PROMOTE SUSTAINABLE LIVING

Five Points of Greenness

  1. Source Reduction: High yield process requires less source material to make everyday items (as little as 1/10 when compared to traditional plastic).
  2. 100% Recycled Material: Produce a wide range of products with up to 100% recycled plastic and up to 60% post-consumer content.
  3. Recycle Again: Our process does not chemically change plastic, technically enabling closed loop recycling. Manufacturers can reuse their thermoforming trim.
  4. Benign Process: No harmful or noxious gases are used in processing. Little to no new oil or natural gas is required for the source material when using recycled plastic.
  5. Lower Energy Usage: Our process requires less energy compared to creating new (virgin) plastic and significantly less energy compared to creating paper products.

Finally, MicroGREEN will solve the “coffee cup dilemma”

MicroGREEN’s disposable cup outperforms all others at lower manufacturing costs, while reducing environmental impact.

  • Expanded PET plastic keeps your fingers cool and your coffee warm, as well as reduces plastic use and energy consumption.
  • Using recycled plastic further reduces energy costs while preserving precious oil.
  • Enabling cup recycling reduces landfill waste.

For example, the plastic found in a common 20 oz soda bottle is enough to make seven 12 oz coffee cups.
