ST. LOUIS, MO. (July 2, 2024) – Spartech, a leading manufacturer of engineered thermoplastics and custom packaging solutions, continues to expand its sustainability focus by announcing that the Floorlite® product line is now being developed with recyclable Post Consumer Resin (PCR).
“While there is a lot of talk about sustainability within the industry, I am proud to be part of one of many Spartech initiatives to make it happen,” said Spartech Market Development Manager Gabriel Knee. “Floorlite® is a great example of a recyclable product line that contributes toward a circular economy.”
Floorlite® products are made with certified PCR material and manufactured with formulations from 25% to 39% post consumer resin. These durable sheets are lightweight, easily thermoformed, provide a mar resistant surface, and are approved for automotive use in applications such as non-carpet flooring protection.
Featuring excellent thermoformability, Floorlite® sheets conform well to automotive flooring contours and comply with automotive dimensional stability demands. The aesthetic value of these sheets also follow automotive standards for color and dimension stability.
Floorlite® flexible sheets are designed to provide resistance to surface staining and discoloration from harsh cleaners and automotive chemicals. This sustainable product line meets the OEM specifications of major automotive manufacturers including Ford, GM, Chrysler, Toyota, and Nissan.
