It was ten years ago this month that DuPont Tate & Lyle Bio Products announced the first commercial shipments of a breakthrough biomaterial, bio-based 1,3-propanediol. Four years later it announced an expansion increasing capacity by 35 percent at its facility in Loudon, Tennessee. Today with thousands of customers around the globe and products in most major consumer and industrial market segments, DuPont Tate & Lyle celebrates a decade of offering higher-performing ingredients from a petroleum-free, sustainable and renewable source.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cThis joint venture started as a revolutionary innovation project that applied the tools of modern biotechnology to make high-performance biomaterials in a much more sustainable way than traditional petro-chemistry,\u201d stated Michael Saltzberg, global business director of biomaterials for DuPont. \u201cIts track record of success has inspired the academic and industrial science community around the world to invest in industrial biotech and is a case study of how to successfully innovate in this space.<\/p>\n

\u201cOur partnership with DuPont is a great example of bringing the best of two organizations together to create a first to market product and process that continues to demonstrate versatility and functionality in the global marketplace,\u201d said Greg Wenndt, vice president and general manager, industrial starch and bioventures, Tate & Lyle. \u201cWe are proud of the success we\u2019ve built together and share our congratulations with our DuPont partners and the DuPont Tate & Lyle teams around the world for achieving a decade of great work and continued innovation.\u201d<\/p>\n

By bringing together the unrivaled track record of DuPont\u2019s research and development with Tate & Lyle\u2019s industry-leading fermentation expertise, scientists and engineers from this joint venture developed a proprietary process that uses plant-based feedstocks to produce bio-based 1,3-propanediol. Today the joint venture provides solutions for a wide variety of markets and applications through its bio-based performance brands Susterra\u00ae and Zemea\u00ae propanediol in addition to Bio-PDO\u2122, the key ingredient for DuPont\u2122 Sorona\u00ae high-performance polymers.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019ve grown past what was previously imagined,\u201d explained Todd Sutton, president, DuPont Tate & Lyle Bio Products. \u201cThe versatility of the product allows us to support the DuPont\u2122 Sorona\u00ae fiber business as well as grow organically with Zemea\u00ae and Susterra\u00ae propanediol. The benefits of creating high-performing solutions in combination with renewability allows us to continue to expand our market reach in the personal care, food, polyurethanes and heat transfer fluids markets as well as many other applications\u201d<\/p>\n

Zemea\u00ae propanediol is a multifunctional, preservative-boosting humectant and ingredient that delivers high performance in a variety of consumer applications, from cosmetics and personal care to food, flavor, and pharmaceuticals, and laundry and household cleaning.<\/p>\n

Susterra\u00ae propanediol is the building block that delivers high performance in a variety of applications, from polyurethanes and unsaturated polyester resins to heat-transfer fluids.<\/p>\n
