Balena takes a significant leap in circularity with its BioCycling program, built around the innovative BioCir® material. This initiative ensures that products reach the end of their life responsibly through a biological recycling mechanism, decomposing fully and safely in industrial compost through injection molding and 3D printing—to BioCir®flex3D, which offers biodegradable, high-performance 3D printing options. Additionally, BioCir®x, a bio-based and biodegradable polymer derived through bacterial fermentation, replaces non- biodegradable petrochemical materials facilities without harming the environment. By partnering with a global network of compost facilities, Balena guarantees the full decomposition and return of the BioCir® material back to the soil, promoting a fully circular process.
Balena’s BioCir® materials range from BioCirFlex—a durable, flexible thermoplastic elastomer for durable goods production like PP and ABS in consumer goods, supporting a sustainable future.
