Solegear Bioplastics Inc., a developer of award-winning bioplastic technologies, has teamed up with the National Research Council of Canada (NRC) to jointly develop new bioplastic using their respective proprietary formulations and technologies.<\/b><\/p>\n
Since commercializing its initial portfolio of 100% non-toxic, bio-based and compostable bioplastics in 2010, Solegear has focused on creating customized, high-performance bioplastic solutions for some of the world\u2019s leading companies. This has been achieved by collaborating with an international team of scientists, creating partnerships through the full plastics supply chain and consistently developing new technologies that increase the strength, processability and real-world performance of today\u2019s bioplastics.<\/p>\n
“The collaboration with NRC builds on the partnership we\u2019ve had since 2007.\u201d says Solegear CEO, and founder Toby Reid, “The Polymer Bioproducts team at the NRC is world-renowned for their understanding and expertise in stabilizing bioplastics, and is a great fit with our technology for modifying specific performance characteristics of bioplastics. This project sets the stage to deliver significant technology breakthroughs that would be otherwise unachievable if we both worked independently. It\u2019s Canadian collaboration and innovation in action.\u201d<\/p>\n
“The team at Solegear has done an excellent job to identify key market opportunities in the rapidly growing field of biopolymers. Their technological expertise and their commercialization acumen make them a valuable partner in our efforts to bring these Canadian innovations to the market,\u201d says Nathalie Legros, Group Leader for Polymer Bioproducts at NRC. “We look forward to continued success with Solegear and to helping make Canada a leader in biopolymers and bioproducts.\u201d<\/p>\n
