Dutch renewable and circular polymer materials company Avantium has entered a capacity reservation agreement with packaging company Logoplaste for its plant-based and recyclable polymer, polyethylene furanoate (PEF), marketed under the brand name Releaf.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Releaf, derived from plant-based sugars through Avantium\u2019s proprietary YXY technology, offers circular and high-barrier performance properties suitable for a range of packaging applications.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

The new agreement allows Logoplaste to secure future volumes of Releaf from licensed production facilities utilising this technology.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The collaboration is expected to strengthen Logoplaste\u2019s development of Releaf-based packaging and address increasing market demand following successful product validation.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Logoplaste chief technology officer Paulo Correia stated: \u201cThis agreement is a testament to our shared commitment to driving innovation in sustainable packaging.<\/p>\n

\u201cBy securing future volumes of Avantium\u2019s Releaf, we are able to accelerate the development of advanced packaging solutions with outstanding barrier properties, supporting our customers\u2019 ambitions for circularity and performance across a wide range of applications.\u201d\u202f\u00a0<\/p>\n

Both companies are already part of the Bottle Collective, a consortium working on recyclable fibre-based bottles that includes partners such as Diageo, Opella (formerly Sanofi) and Haleon.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The latest agreement extends their partnership beyond the Bottle Collective, focusing on applications across Logoplaste\u2019s core sectors, including beverages, food, pharmaceuticals, home care and personal care.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Logoplaste specialises in injection and blow moulding processes for sustainable and high-performance packaging solutions.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

Avantium is commissioning what it describes as the world\u2019s first commercial-scale facility for furandicarboxylic acid (FDCA) \u2013 a key component in PEF \u2013 located in Delfzijl, the Netherlands.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

The company previously demonstrated the technology at pilot scale in Geleen.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Avantium business development director Bineke Posthumus added: \u201cWe are excited to deepen our collaboration with Logoplaste as a strategic partner. The capacity reservation agreement reflects the growing momentum behind Releaf as a key material for next-generation, high-performance packaging.<\/p>\n

\u201cTogether, we are paving the way for scaleable solutions that combine renewable materials with outstanding functionality.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
