Alternative energy sources for fossil fuels SOLAR PANELS

Hope you are keeping safe and staying well for 2021.
Today, we are excited to share with you the news that our long-planned new Chiayi plant has finally been completed in 2021!

Since the launch of our proprietary biobased foam materials – the DeCO2 foam, we have discovered that there has been a profound resonance for eco-friendly materials and environmental protection, worldwide. Hence, we were determined more than ever set up solar panels in our Chiayi plant as an alternative energy resource for fossil fuels. These solar panels provide not only the required in-house electricity but also the energy needed for our foam production lines.

According to our Green Energy report, our new Chiayi plant’s solar panels can generate 850kWp of electricity per month. To put it into perspective, in Taiwan, a single household consumes, on average, 287kWh per month – EVA Glory’s Chiayi plant can support three households’ power consumption every month. In other words, if a Tesla needs 76kWh to be fully charged, then we can fill up 10 to 11 Teslas, easily!

Eco-friendly Biobased DeCO2 EVA/PE Resins Series
EVA Glory's DeCO2 EVA/PE Resins series are made from a wide spectrum of renewable biobased feedstock, such as bamboo, rice husk, agricultural waste, and plant-based ethanol, which are not eligible for food or feed production. Not only are they the emerging raw materials of the foam manufacturing industry, they have also become the materials of choice for environmental sustainability and carbon reduction awareness.

Using DeCO2 Resins in foam production reduces carbon emission and your environmental footprint as it replaces conventional fossil EVA and PE, without compromising on performance and quality in the final product. Foams made with the DeCO2 Resins have excellent post-processing performance that meets a wide variety of converting processes. More importantly, it is an environmentally friendly material, and we offer creative solutions to meet your specific converting requirements.

The DeCO2 Resins series contain Biobased Carbon content ranging from 70% to more than 90% as tested by Beta Analytic, Inc. DeCO2 Resins series conforms to USDA BioPreferred Program under category of Intermediates-Plastic Resins (22%). For detailed information, please click links or as shown below.

The Foam Expo USA will be held from Jul 13 to 15, 2021.
Due to the coronavirus, we cannot participate in the Foam Expo USA in person, but we look forward to sharing with you new foam materials that reduce greenhouse gases and the use of plastic.

The major foam materials and applications are as follows:
Foam material

• Biobased foam: DeCO2
  In order to reduce carbon dioxide emissions, DeCO2 foam is made with renewable raw materials and recycled PE resins. The latest DeCO2 series are biobased physically cross linked foam — DeCO2 DXS foam. And the biobased resins — DeCO2 WB/WE Resins. They can be used in a wide range of markets and applications.

• Recycle Foam
  The goal is to reduce plastic. Recycle foam is made from foam wastes through physical or chemical technology and it’s made with even more ideal quality.

• Protection foam: Nitrex
  EVA GLORY has developed Nitrex foam materials with impact protection and shock absorption through professional composite technology; hence Nitrex can maintain the ideal protective effect in the temperature range of -20°C to 40°C.

Application

• Foam injection
  It is ideal for creating complex structures, such as curves and spherical surfaces that are difficult to achieve using the traditional EVA foam forming/shaping processes.

• Die ejection foam
  We developed the die ejection foam that can be customized to meet customers' specific applications and requirements.

• Marine deck: Deva
  Deva not only has excellent slip resistance, but also UV resistance, shock resistance, and anti-fatigue. Deva can be used to reduce noise and protect the boat surfaces against scratches, chips, and dents.

The Double Expansion DeCO2 Foam – Eco-friendly and Lightweight

The EVA GLORY's new Double Expansion DeCO2 Foam is made using our proprietary eco-friendly compound formulation, which contains renewable biobased feedstock, and uses the Double Expansion foaming technique. The 2-Steps foaming process gives the foam its light-weight characteristic and better cost-effectiveness comparing to its sister DeCO2 Foam using 1-Step foaming process, while retaining up to 27% Biobased Carbon Content, as tested by Beta Analytic, Inc.

Feedstock：

Renewable biobased feedstock including bamboo, rice husks, straw, wood, also recycled agricultural wastes, which are not eligible for food or feed production.

Manufacturing process：

Double Expansion Foaming technique.

Our Double-Expanded DeCO2 foam is available for a wide variety of applications, and it can be customized further to meet your specific requirements.

Physically Cross Linked DeCoto DXS Series
The DeCO2 DXS foam is made with LDPE, EVA, and renewable biobased feedstock which will help to reduce the carbon footprint when producing them. Our DeCO2 DXS has a smooth surface on the outside, and uniform distribution of closed-cell structures on the inside which gives the DXS foam its excellent mechanical properties and stability.
The DXS foam is non-toxic, odorless, waterproof, soundproof, shockproof, thermal resistant, and versatile for a variety of processing techniques. It can be further customized to achieve an extensive array of functions to meet customer's specific needs, such as corrosion-resistant, flame resistant, anti-mildew, anti-electromagnetic radiation, anti-static, and more.

Specification(Customizable)

• Width: 600-2000mm
• Thickness: 1.5-12.7mm
• Density: 0.04-0.3 g/cm³

Inspection and certification
The DeCO2 DXS foam series contain Biobased Carbon content ranging from 30% to 40% as tested by Beta Analytic, Inc., and the addition of biobased feedstock does not affect the foam's basic physical properties. The DXS foam can conform to USDA BioPreferred Program under the category of Intermediates－Foams (22%), and OK biobased 1 star (between 20% and 40% biobased). In addition, we can customize different ratios of biobased carbon content for customer's needs.

Application
The DeCO2 DXS foam is widely used in a variety of applications for different sectors. It can serve as a protective and insulating foam layer for sound/heat insulation pads, bumper strips, waterproof and packaging materials. The DXS foam is an excellent material for exercise/yoga mats, water floating facilities, ski accessories, helmet liners, and equestrian vests.
