What is Bio-Res™ ?
Bio-Res is filler or additive created from a bio-based feedstock. The initial feedstock will be distillers grains, a by-product of the ethanol process. The feedstock undergoes a proprietary process which creates a product for inclusion in thermoplastics. Bio-Res can be delivered as a fine powder or in pellet form.
Laurel BioComposite, LLC was formed to commercialize a new product for use in the plastics industry by building a plant that would convert Distillers Grain, a by-product of the ethanol process, into a product that would replace traditional petroleum based resins in various plastics manfacturing processes.
The material produced, Bio-Res™ , can be blended with various resins in certain applications. It can be included at rates up to 40% in manufactured plastic products while maintaining or enhancing the desired characteristics of the end product.

The hard work and dedication of pilot plant employees helped Laurel BioComposite recently reach its "Box # 100" milestone. Pictured above (left to right) are Clark Maxon, Heather Bearnes, Penny Maxon and Jordan Johnston loading the box filled with Bio-Res™ .
We don't make the plastic.
