These bio-based nylon grades utilize up to 47 percent natural filler from renewable plant sources, including corn, straw and wheat, and reduce the carbon footprint value significantly at the beginning of the product lifecycle, improving overall lifecycle analysis.

For example, a plant
grows, a worm eats the plant, a bird eats the worm, then the bird eventually dies
and its nutrients are absorbed by the soil—where a plant grows again.
You can find ideas
applying this circular ecosystem to modern economics and manufacturing as far
back as post-World War II.
But it’s more than just transitioning to
renewable energies: it’s designing out waste and pollution before production and
manufacturing even begin.

The filler is sourced from plant waste that would otherwise be landfilled, which in turn would create methane, a greenhouse gas more potent than carbon dioxide.
