How Biocomposite materials can transform the stigma associated with the plastics industry

A biocomposite is a composite material formed by a matrix (resin) and a reinforcement of natural fibres. Environmental concern and cost of synthetic fibres have led the foundation of using natural fibre as reinforcement in polymeric composites. It is estimated by world in data that only ~ 1% of virgin plastic is still in circulation by reuse. Biocomposite materials is a promising venue to reuse plastics with new properties and functionalities. The texture and colour give the vibe of new materials and changes with the biological fibre used. There is a wide array of applications for biocomposites ranging from civil, automobiles, aerospace, mechanical, biomedical, and marine applications.How Biocomposite materials can transform the stigma associated with the plastics industry 9

We @ MynuscoTM are doing exactly this! Using less of virgin plastic or using recycled plastic and blending with natural fibres obtained from crop residue. We have developed more than 1000 biomaterial SKU’s using AI intervention, and from this, currently have more than 200 product SKU’s. Don’t you want to join us in the momentum of a new world with parity and innovation? We think you can be moved.
