Material produced by our compounder. Resin is a combination of 30% blend of corn cob fiber and injection molding grade polypropylene.
SC 50
Terratek
A proprietary blend of wheat starch and polypropylene for injection molding applications. Contains 50% wheat starch by weight, however, a range of properties can be achieved by altering the starch to plastic ratio and by the inclusion or admission of other updateitives. Formulations can range from 30% to 65% starch are available upon request.
SC 65
Terratek
A proprietary blend of wheat starch and polypropylene for injection molding applications.

BD CC062915
Terratek
A proprietary blend of corn cob fiber and biodegradable polyesters for injection molding. Great material for horticulture applications for small pots and plant trays.
• The natural look of corn cob is a visual reminder that the maker will safely return to nature after it’s useful life is over.
• A blend of certified compostable polymers gives the product the physical structure and integrity required for satisfactory performance without harming the environment.
• 80% biobased means the material is renewable and 80% reclaimed content illustrates the resourceful reuse of materials that would otherwise be landfilled.
• The material is formulated and produced in the United States and the finished product is manufactured here as well; reducing the carbon foot print of the entire finished product.
• Degradation rate will vary depending on the exact environment it is in, as a combination of temperature, moisture, and microbial activity.

BioMarkers Case Study on BioDegradable Material
MCG BioComposites LLC began operations
in 2007. Early on the company worked
hard to market their biocomposite resin to
various organization’ OEMs. There was
signifcant resistance because all they
could show them were the resin pellets.
After brainstorming, the solution was
simple. Create a product made from the
biocomposite resin to show an example of
how the material could be used in
tangible application, in addition to
providing a data sheet detailing the
physical characteristics, qualities and mold
flow analysis of the resin.
