Compared to conventional petroleum-based plastics, "LIMEX Pellet" can significantly reduce the amount of petroleum used, contributing to the conservation of limited petroleum resources. It also makes it possible to reduce _CO2 emissions throughout the entire lifecycle, from procurement of raw materials to disposal. The main raw material, limestone, has a more stable supply and less price fluctuation than petroleum-based plastics, making it possible to provide it at a stable price.

"LIMEX Pellet" can be easily mechanical recycling in existing recycling facilities just like single materials, so we offer "LIMEX R Pellet" made by re-pelletizing scraps generated during the manufacturing process of "LIMEX Sheet", and "LIMEX UP Pellet" made by re-pelletizing used LIMEX products. In addition, for bag products, we have developed a material called "Bio LIMEX" that replaces petroleum-based plastic with plant-derived plastic. We are working to visualize and reduce the environmental impact that occurs during the product life cycle through LCA (Life Cycle Assessment).

Here, we will concretely present detailed data on the environmental performance of PET bottles in comparison with various petroleum-based plastics, such as greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions including _CO2 throughout the entire product life cycle (from raw material procurement to disposal) and the amount of petroleum-based plastics used.
