Green-pe is unlike conventional polyethylene, the ethylene used to
produce Green PE is not derived from crude oil,
but from bio-ethanol based on sugar cane.
By using this renewable raw material,
one ton of Green PE can absorb up to 3.09 tons
of CO2 from the atmosphere.
This means when compared to existing petroleum-based polyethylene,
are up to 70% lower—even
when emissions from the manufacturing and
transportation process are taken into account.
It thus helps to reduce harmful greenhouse gas emissions.
Experts say this could mean that the use of green polyethylene would
help reduce dependence on oil and prevent global warming.

The sugarcane used to make Green-pe is
sourced from southern Brazil, where it relies on rainwater, not irrigation.
It’s a fully renewable resource that grows quickly, removing carbon from the atmosphere in the process.
It is made from the fibrous residue left over after refining sugar,
so there is no chance of decreases in food availability or any harm towards the natural environment.
It is an eco-friendly raw material that can be recycled continuously.
