Mango Materials produces Poly-hydroxybutryate (PHB); naturally occurring biopolymers from waste biogas (methane) that are economically competitive with conventional oil-based plastics.

Biobased PHB is available in the form of either powder or pellets. It has the potential to replace fossil-based polymers in a wide range of commercial and consumer plastic applications.

Example Applications:

Microbeads
Toys
Agricultural films
Shampoo bottles
Packaging
