About Green Dot Bioplastics

Are you looking for raw material with the versatility and strength of traditional plastic but without the negative environmental impact?

So were we. When we couldn’t find what we were looking for, we developed it ourselves and Green Dot Bioplastics was born.

Located in the heart of the scenic Kansas Flint Hills, we founded Green Dot Bioplastics in 2011 with a mission to create a new generation of plastics.

Green Dot is committed to the UN Sustainable Development Goals, a blueprint designed to solve our planet’s toughest challenges by 2030. As a company producing sustainable materials, Green Dot is in alignment with most SDGs, though we are more directly aligned with #12 Responsible Consumption and Production, #13 Climate Action, #14 Life Below Water, and #15 Life On Land.

We know that no single bioplastic solution will eliminate the problems of waste, over-reliance on non-renewable resources, or the use of harmful chemicals in manufacturing. However, at Green Dot, we believe a combination of strategies gives product designers and entrepreneurs the flexibility to choose more sustainable plastic materials without sacrificing quality.

The skilled researchers in our Product Development Lab are at the forefront of the development of bioplastic materials for innovative, sustainable end-use. We have seen our raw materials turned into everything from surfboards to toys to wearable fashion to 3D printer filament. As with traditional plastics, the uses for Green Dot’s full line of plant-based materials are as infinite as your imagination, with the added advantages of:

• Decreasing dependency on petroleum-based fossil fuels;
• Promoting the use of agricultural byproducts;
• Lightening our environmental impact.

Together, we are closing the gap to a more sustainable future.
