What does UBQ Materials do?
UBQ Materials has developed a solution addressing the issue of waste by converting unrecyclable household waste into a plastic substitute. This includes a wide range of materials such as organics (e.g., banana peels, chicken bones, pizza boxes), baby diapers, and mixed plastics. The process transforms these materials into UBQ a homogeneous thermoplastic that can replace oil-based plastics in durable applications across various industries. The patented waste conversion process used by UBQ Materials enables the diversion of waste from landfills and incineration, utilizing the entire household waste stream to create a bio-based thermoplastic. This not only helps in reducing the carbon footprint of manufacturers who adopt UBQ™ but also supports the broader goals of a circular economy. UBQ Materials has garnered attention and adoption from several major brands and manufacturers, such as Mercedes-Benz, Teknor Apex, McDonald's, PepsiCo, Rimax, ABInBev, and Polyram.
