Polymer Chemist/Plastics

INTEC Bioplastics is a bio resin engineering company that utilizes innovative patented technology to manufacture eco-friendly products to save the environment. INTEC’s Sustainability Partnership platform will assist companies in reaching their goal of net zero plastic waste to landfills at their facilities nationwide. Every company in the world is seeking sustainable and renewable packaging alternatives. The INTEC Bioplastics team has developed a patented plant-based biomaterial, called EarthPlus. EarthPlus replaces toxic petroleum-based products with an eco-friendly, environmentally sustainable material that is economically feasible to our customers. Our technology reduces your operating cost. INTEC’s innovative technology allows us to recycle many different types of plastic material together to create a “RE-PCR” REENGINEERED POST CONSUMER Recycled plastic resin that is much better for our environment than the original petroleum plastic resin. INTEC holds the world leading patented technology that allows PCR to be biodegradable after INTEC re-engineers the PCR. This technology allows INTEC to deliver the RE-PCR back to our customers at a reduced cost to the original petroleum-based plastic resin.

At INTEC BIO PLASTICS, we strive to eliminate the use of toxic chemical plastics to maximize the use of renewable biomaterials that are eco-friendly to eliminate plastic pollution and waste.
