UPM&#8217;s bioMEG, marketed under the name\u00a0BioPura,\u00a0is made of CO\u2082 negative renewable feedstock that\u00a0 does not compete with food resources and has a significantly reduced CO\u2082 footprint \u00a0&#8211; minimally 70% &#8211; compared to fossil-based MEG. As a second generation biochemical, it is derived from sustainably sourced hardwood and offers\u00a0a renewable, drop-in solution for fossil-based MEG in the production of PET polyester.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">For the production of the polyester, Indorama Ventures will polymerise and spin the polyester yarn at its site in Guben,Germany.<\/p>\n<p class=\"inline-ad-para\" dir=\"ltr\">Pontetorto, a textile manufacturer in Prato, Italy, will then process this yarn into a bio-based polyester fabric, which Vaude will use to produce the final garments.<\/p>\n<p class=\"inline-ad-para\" dir=\"ltr\">Asked by ERJ whether the bio-polyesters could eventually also\u00a0find use\u00a0in tire-reinforcement fabric, a UPM spokeswoman\u00a0confirmed that this was the case, adding that &#8216;in this fabric, the bio-content would be then approx. 30%&#8217;.<\/p>\n<p class=\"inline-ad-para\" dir=\"ltr\">BioMEG can also be used to produce a more sustainable\u00a0polyurethane (PU) materials. Last year, UPM announced<a class=\"omnitrack inline-paragraph-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.upm.com\/about-us\/for-media\/releases\/2022\/08\/upm-and-dongsung-chemical-announce-strategic-partnership-to-develop-renewable-products-using-bio-based-raw-materials\/\" data-omnilocation=\"articlebody\" data-omnilink=\"editorial-link\">\u00a0<\/a>a development partnership with\u00a0Dongsung Chemical in South Korea under which Dongsung would use\u00a0UPM\u2019s BioPura\u00a0to manufacture renewable polyurethane for the textile and footwear industries in Asia. Later, the company intends to expand the field of application to automotive interior materials and adhesives.<\/p>\n<p class=\"inline-ad-para\" dir=\"ltr\">Meanwhile, UPM is investing \u20ac750 million to construct the world\u2019s first industry-scale biorefinery. Located at Leuna, in Saxony-Anhalt, Germany, the 220 kilotonne-per-annum facility will convert sustainably sourced, certified woody biomass into renewably-sourced\u00a0biochemicals, including bioMEG. The plant is due to come on line by the end of this year.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><strong><em>sustainableplastics<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<div style=\"margin-top: 20px\" class=\"zaya-short-link\">\n    <span><strong>Short link : <\/strong> link.iranpolymer.com\/aic<\/span>\n    <a href=\"#\" title=\"\u06a9\u067e\u06cc \u06a9\u0646\u06cc\u062f\" class=\"zaya-shortlink\"\n       style=\"font-size:10px;margin-right:5px;background-color:#eee;display:inline-block;padding:0 5px;border-radius: 4px;\"\n       data-url=\"link.iranpolymer.com\/aic\">\u06a9\u067e\u06cc \u06a9\u0646\u06cc\u062f<\/a>\n<\/div>\n<script>\n    document.addEventListener(\"DOMContentLoaded\", function () {\n        \"use strict\";\n        document.querySelectorAll(\".zaya-shortlink\").forEach(function (element) {\n            element.addEventListener(\"click\", function (e) {\n                e.preventDefault();\n                try {\n                    let url = this.dataset.url;\n                    let tempInput = document.createElement(\"input\");\n                    document.body.append(tempInput);\n                    tempInput.value = url;\n                    tempInput.select();\n                    document.execCommand(\"copy\");\n                    tempInput.remove();\n                    this.textContent = \"\u06a9\u067e\u06cc \u0634\u062f\"\n                } catch (e) {\n                }\n            });\n        });\n    });\n<\/script>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Iranpolymer\/ Baspar Helsinki \u2013 UPM Biochemicals and outdoor apparel manufacturer Vaude have joined forces to produce bio-based polyester textile and footwear materials.
