[ 01 ]About

Puro Renewables upcycles biorenewable, carbon-negative, biowaste to dramatically reduce the environmental impact of plastics. The company helps partners reduce their reliance on fossil-fuel-based resins while also dramatically reducing their carbon emissions, and create products that enable a circular economy. Puro Renewables has commercialized 3 products to date. Its first product, Oysterplast, is a composite pellet that upcycles oyster shell waste. Its second product, Agaveplast, is a composite pellet that upcycles agave fiber waste. Its third product, the Puroplast Bioaccelerator is an additive that will enable the bioassimilation of polyolefins-based plastics if they are landfilled.
