Why mono-material is the way forward

In today’s world, where sustainability is at the forefront of all conversations about product design and manufacturing, one trend stands out above all others: mono-materials. But what makes mono-material so revolutionary in the packaging industry? The answer is simple: products made from different materials are very difficult to recycle.

To achieve a truly sustainable future, we need to focus on designing products that are optimised for recycling. This is exactly what we are focusing on with ONE-DNA™ artificial grass. The benefits are

  • Recycling efficiency: Using a single material, such as the polyethylene (PE) that makes up LimeGreen’s ONE-DNA™ turf, eliminates the need to separate raw materials. This makes the recycling process much more efficient and cost effective.
  • Simplicity in production: Monomaterial leads to a simplification of production processes, resulting in reduced CO2 emissions and minimised use of raw materials. This directly contributes to achieving sustainability goals.
  • More environmentally friendly: An efficient recycling process reduces environmental impact. This means less waste and less need for new raw materials.
  • Circularity: The product can be fully recycled and used to make new products. This is the essence of circularity, a principle that LimeGreen is pursuing with its ONE-DNA™ artificial grass. The artificial turf is designed to be reused in high-value applications, which is fully in line with the EU’s sustainability strategy.

The future is mono-material. The future is now. ONE-DNA™ artificial grass demonstrates how focusing on single raw materials not only improves recycling efficiency, but also promotes a more sustainable world. Let’s take a step towards a more sustainable future with LimeGreen. 💚
