Floreon Technology is an innovative company that emerged from a successful KTP (Knowledge Transfer Partnership) with the University of Sheffield. Floreon’s technical team has developed expertise in using Polylactic Acid (PLA) to produce a highly robust line of biopolymers for engineering purposes. Unlike typical PLA, which is often used for disposable items, Floreon’s technology converts it into an exceptionally durable, high-performance material suitable for a wide range of applications. These include automotive, rail, marine, and aviation components, electrical and electronic parts, building and construction, medical, and sporting equipment.
Floreon’s patented family of bioplastics compromises of:
• Therma-Tech, world’s first halogen free PLA-based polymer to achieve UL94V-0 rating
• Dura-Tech
• Bio-Tech
Floreon® biopolymers are intended as a sustainable substitute for fossil-based styrenic polymers such as ABS, PC-ABS, or HIPS, offering up to 7 times lower carbon footprint while maintaining and even in some cases exceeding, the physical and mechanical performance of their fossil-based counterparts.
Floreon® biopolymers are versatile and can be used in injection moulding, extrusion, 3D print filament manufacturing, films & fibres, thermo/vacuum forming and even in foaming applications.
