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.
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
