GreenMantra Receives $2.2 Million for Polymer Development
A demonstration plant will be constructed at GreenMantra's existing manufacturing complex in Brantford, Ontario.
GreenMantra Technologies recently announced it will receive $2.2 million from Sustainable Development Technology Canada (SDTC) to be used toward construction of a demonstration plant that will convert waste polystyrene into modified styrenic polymers for use in inks, foam insulation, and other applications.
"We are thrilled that SDTC will provide a portion of the capital necessary for this important project," said Kousay Said, GreenMantra president and CEO. "This pilot plant will enable us to scale up our patent-pending process for sustainably reusing of one of the world's least recycled plastics."
