Bio-PA

(Polyamide)

Bio-PA (Polyamide) is a bio-based non-biodegradable bioplastic. It is derived from sebacic acid found in naturally produced castor oil.

The plastic performs as per traditional oil fossil-based PA, with the only difference being the original feedstock is sourced from a bio-based renewable resource. Bio-PA is not biodegradable like other bioplastics, but it can be recycled alongside other plastic waste.

Common uses for Bio-PA include electronics components, automotive components and sports equipment.

Circular Features

Raw Material

Bio-Pa is derived from a natural renewable source (castor oil) compared to traditional fossil fuel-based PA.

Afterlife Plan

Bio-PA can be recycled just the same as traditional PA.
