What it is
What is sugarcane bioplastic?
Sugarcane bioplastic, also called green PE, is a polyethylene made from sugarcane ethanol instead of oil. Each bottle is made from 98% sugarcane-based material.
While the sugarcane grows it takes CO₂ out of the air. That carbon stays in the material of the bottle. Measured over the whole life of the bottle, from farming to production and transport, it takes up more CO₂ than it releases. The material carries the Braskem I’m green™ certification.
Green PE is chemically the same as conventional HDPE. It has the same food safety and the same strength, and it is recycled in the same waste stream.
Why sugarcane
Made from a plant, used for years.
- A renewable sourceSugarcane grows back every year. Oil does not.
- Light and drop-safeA 0.5 L bottle weighs about 30 g and does not break when it falls.
- Refill, wash, repeatBPA-free and dishwasher safe to 65°C, so one bottle replaces many single-use bottles.
