Our eco-friendly Bio-TPU resin, lightweight LFRT (long-fiber reinforced composite materials) and recyclable ABS resin series products have successfully passed the strict requirements of GRS global recycling standards and officially obtained certification in November 2023. This achievement comes after the dedicated efforts of our QA, EHS, R&D and sales departments, as well as the intensive collaboration with professional IDFL testing companies for more than half a year.
This international certification is an important milestone in our commitment to environmental protection, which not only demonstrates GRECO's sustainable business mission, but also highlights our adherence to quality and environmental standards.

Bio TPU resin

ISOTHANE Bio-TPU is extracted from natural plants. GRECO’s R&D team has developed high-value-added Bio-TPU thermoplastic polyurethane (ISOTHANE Bio-based Grades) with key technologies and two major systems of corn and castor oil, containing more than 25% of the raw materials for plant extraction. We have offered various specifications with 28%, 32%, 46%, 50% biomass content, and it can also be customized according to customer needs.

Bio-TPU is a biomass source material and recyclable material, which can save energy, reduce carbon emissions, and provide excellent physical properties of the original chemical. It not only has excellent toughness, mechanical strength, wear resistance and solvent resistance, but it is also a sustainable resource that can replace petroleum fuels and organic chemistry.

GRECO’s Bio-TPU resin has been promoted for many years, and has been affirmed and developed by many well-known brands and manufacturers. It has been widely used in daily necessities, such as film materials for food packaging, waterproof and breathable sportswear, functional gloves, sports and leisure sneakers, low-temperature resistant snow goggle frames, bicycle spare parts, 3C laptop peripheral parts and life jackets, etc.

In the past, most of the materials relied on petroleum extraction. To reduce the harm to human and the earth, people start to pursue non-toxicity and back-end recycling. Thus, GRECO has developed ISOTHANE Bio-TPU resin with solvent-free and non-toxic, bringing more convenience and safety to life, and continues the green future of the earth.

LFRT long fiber composite

ISOPAK LFRT has biomass and recycled plastic added in the pre-production process. With the efforts of GRECO's R&D team, the length of reinforced fiber is equal to the length of plastic pellets and is longer than 6mm resin composite fiber materials. Different from general thermosetting materials, LFRT is a thermoplastic material, and its scraps can be recycled, crushed, reused or remixed for use without significant loss of performance, and can meanwhile reduce the cost of waste disposal in the later end.

LFRT has been widely used in aerospace, automobile and motorcycle, hand tools (pneumatic/electric), industrial-grade fans, sports (bicycles/skis/fishing tackle, etc.) industries. In terms of the application of automobile and motorcycle components, metal materials were preferred in the past for many industrial products due to their high strength and heat resistance, whereas they were not suitable for forming complex shapes. Instead, LFRT is not only similar to the performance of metal, but also has the advantages of excellent specific strength, rigidity, impact resistance, dimensional stability, temperature resistance, low warpage, creep resistance, low thermal expansion coefficient, etc., which makes it an optimal choice to replace metal.

ABS resins

ISOPAK ABS is a sustainable material that can be recycled and reused. Its material properties are high impact resistant, high gloss and high process capability, and it is widely used and has a bright texture. GRECO’s ABS series products comply with the EU chemical REACH, RoHS regulations and GRS global recycling standards.

GRECO has always been committed to the research and development of environmental-friendly products, with the concept of energy saving, carbon reduction, and recyclability, to achieve a better life.
