Bio-Based Membrane Technology — Green Process, Trusted Performance
The membrane is made with DuPont™ BioPDO™, a plant-derived ingredient produced through microbial fermentation.
● Plant-starch origin
● 40% lower GHG emissions
● 40% less non-renewable energy use
Performance remains strong— A typical 4-layer composite fabric reaches about 5,000 g/m²•24hr in ASTM E96 BW permeability test.
With green innovation, Tiong Liong delivers high-performance waterproofing—making every step more sustainable.
Bio-based waterproof membrane adds BioPDO™, which is made from DuPont, in the blown film process.
Transformation process of BioPDO™ element is that extracting natural starch from plants and mixing with microorganisms and then going into fermentation process. Plant starch contains glucose, which helps BioPDO™ naturally grown from the fermenting process. By adding TPA (p-Phthalic acid), it assists BioPDO™ to have chemical bonding, so that fiber or film is able to be abstracted.
Comparing with conventional petroleum-based membrane making, bio-based membrane may reduce over 40% of greenhouse gas emission. The membrane made from BioPDO™ process may reduce 40% of non-renewable resources. It no doubt that it is more environmental friendly waterproof membrane.
Bio-based waterproof membrane fabric for footwear lining use.
