Eco-plastics
for future generations

Treemera has developed a highly efficient and economical process to manufacture furandicarboxylicacid (FDCA), the building block for high purity PEF.

100% recyclable

PEF is a 100% recyclable bio-based polymer derived from plants. It has the potential to replace the plastic industry´s giant polyethylene terephthalate (PET), which is a durable material derived from petroleum. PEF can be described as the next generation polyester, having better mechanical and barrier properties than the largest selling polyester (PET).  » read more

New technology for future eco-plastics

FDCA is made from cellulose, sucrose, starch or HFCS. Short process times, excellent control of process conditions and not isolating the intermediate HMF result in high yields. » read more
