Q1: What’s Sugarcane tube?
A: Sugarcane tube
– Made in the Green PE sourced from Braskem, Brazil.
– Composition: up to 100%
– Conventional PE plastic is fossil-based, Geen PE is made from the ethanol extracted from sugarcane so it is a bio-based plastic.
– Benefit: a renewable source to reduce CO2 emissions and make contribution in the fight against climate change.
Q2: How to introduce sugarcane tube to customers?
A: Our sugarcane tube is made in the Green PE sourced from Braskem, Brazil.
Conventional PE plastic is fossil-based while Geen PE is made from the ethanol extracted from sugarcane so it is a bio-based plastic. Below is a brief production process of this type of green plastic FYI.
So Green PE is from a renewable source which also reduce CO2 emissions Attached the ISCC certificate FYI.
They can be sealed on a standard sealing machine and also recyclable like regular PE tubes. Color and deco are same as regular PE tube, no limitation.
By using this product, we are making contribution in the fight against climate change. 🙂
Q3. What’s the MOQ of sugarcane tubes?
A: Green PE tube (Sugarcane Tube)
– a new plastic made from sugarcane, lowering greenhouse gas emissions during production.
– Composition: 30%, 50%, 100% optional.
-MOQ:
· 20,000pcs/design(D16-25mm tube);
· 10,000pcs/design(D30mm or bigger tube).
Q4: Is it easily recyclable?
A: The recyclability of 100% sugarcane tube is same as normal PE tube.
But as its main material is sugarcane, a fruit from nature, safe and eco-friendly for our environment when it became a product.
It help reduce the reliance on fossil fuels and help replay an effective marketing message on “Greener” packaging. Sugarcane absorbs carbon gas from the air as it grows, and used by mills as a raw material and is transformed into ethanol. The ethanol is used to make our cosmetic tubes(after transferring to Bio. PE). All these sugarcane tubes can be recyclable after they have been used.
Q5. The Ethanol used in the production process is made from sugarcane. Ethanol is used instead of petrochemicals?
A: Yes, correct.
Q6. When you say it uses 30% -70% less plastic – this is not accurate. Green PE is still plastic. It is still PE. It is just PE that is produced in a more environmentally friendly way, right? There is no difference between normal PE and green PE material itself? The difference is just in the manufacturing process, right?
A: Yes, you are correct, Green PE is still plastic. It is still PE.
Q7. I need more information on how you can make the statement that the material is a negative carbon footprint. We cannot just make this statement without facts to back this up.
A: Capturing CO2 from the environment, lowering greenhouse gas emissions. Enclosed the certificate from the Green PE supplier, hope this is helpful for you.
Q8. Can you confirm that also the cap is made from sugarcane?
A: The cap is not made from sugarcane, but it is available in 30%, 50% up to 100% PCR depend on the particular cap type.
Q9. How much plastic is saved by using sugarcane as ingredient?
A: Sugarcane tube is not very much about the plastics that’s being saved. By using this product, we are making
contribution in the fight against climate change.
The material we used is the Green PE sourced from Braskem, Brazil. Conventional PE plastic is fossil-based while
Geen PE is made from the ethanol extracted from sugarcane so it is a bio-based plastic.
Thus, it is still plastic(recyclable), but from a renewable source which also reduce CO2 emissions. Attached the ISCC certificate FYI.
Q10. Is the sugarcane material sourced from Braskem material supplier?
A: Yes, correct.
Q11. Is this material recyclable with a standard LDPE or HDPE recycling stream?
A: Yes, they are recyclable same as other regular PE recycling system.
