It’s about time! No more plastic single-use straws, cutlery, lids, grocery bags, stir sticks, and food service ware in Canada after December! Canada is moving to a circular economy and plant-based solutions created by companies like INCA Renewtech will make it possible.

No waste, no problem! INCA Renewtech is using waste stalks of h**p grown in the Canadian Prairies for protein to create bio-based replacements for plastic cutlery, furniture, kids' toys, and even automotive parts! That’s whole plant utilization and that means no waste! Circular economy here we come!

So exciting! Now in Canada single-use straws, cutlery, lids, stir sticks and checkout bags will be banned in Canada to help grow our future to a zero-plastic waste economy by 2030! Now plant-based alternatives like TreeMaTech cellulose straws, INCA Renewtech cutlery and lids made from BioPlastic and good natured Products Inc. to-go containers can help us transition to a future!

Amazing! Our world’s forests absorb 7.6 billion metric tonnes of CO2 per year, 1.5x more carbon than the United States emits annually! The RV industry uses 600 million+ SFT of hardwood plywood per year! That’s a lot of rainforest. And that’s why INCA Renewtech is working with Genesis Products and Winnebago Industries to develop 45-foot sidewalls made from industrial h**p that will be lighter, longer lasting and save the rainforest! Plus h**p sequesters 3x the CO2 of forests! How great is that!

How crazy is this! “Most plastic products contain a cocktail of chemicals - many of them toxic - designed to give them traits like water resistance or flexibility. These chemicals make it nearly impossible to safely recycle most plastic products and can pose a serious threat to human health if they leach into food or the environment.” INCA Renewtech makes h**p-based BioPlastic strong enough to make knives and forks, kids toys and even autoparts!

When Zhanyun Wang was a kid, his mother told him to avoid the sweet-smelling gases that sometimes drifted across his neighbourhood near Shanghai from nearby plastic factories. Anything that smelled "really nice," the now-researcher at the University of Zurich explained, was "probably very toxic."

Did you know that a quarter of the world’s CO2 is absorbed and controlled by Amazon rainforests? Unfortunately, 30% less CO2 is absorbed since the 1990s due to the invasion of this critical ecosystem - an ecosystem that not only cools the planet by channeling extreme heat into the atmosphere, but also stores large amounts of CO2 within the walls of the 2,500 different tree species that reside there. The continuous loss of such an important environment has inspired INCA Renewtech to create BioBalsa and BioPanels - advanced substitutes - to help preserve one of the world’s largest carbon sinks and eliminate deforestation!

The rising cost of raw materials and transportation is trimming company margins and driving inflation rates for consumers - forcing many into economic turbulence. Over the last year, prices of raw materials have increased by 37.4% and risen two-thirds since January 2020! To combat this rising issue, INCA Renewtech’s advanced biocomposite materials will be made from locally sourced h**p grown in Vegreville, - reducing additional costs for materials and eliminating supply chain challenges.

The company reported a sharp fall in annual profit as ballooning costs offset record sales, and said it expected shoppers to rein in spending in the coming months.

The rate of deforestation in the Amazon directly affects the deteriorating human rights of Indigenous communities that live there and depend on the forest, watershed, wildlife and air quality for their livelihood. Beyond loss of vital carbon sequestration for our planet, the devastation impoverishes what were just a few short years ago independent communities. INCA Renewtech is passionate about bringing BioPanels and BioBalsa to market, to eliminate the need to harvest the Amazon rainforest for RV, wind turbine blade and boat building and protect ecosystems for local communities.

The deforestation of the Amazon in Brazil is at its peak, with 2022 breaking all records. Deforestation threatens human rights.

The practice of dumping plastic waste in developing countries has a profound effect on women and children - advancing severe health issues while encouraging inhumane living conditions. Many women turn to “plastic picking” as a source of income for their families, “but often it comes at a price in terms of health and security.” These unfair living conditions are just one of the issues that inspired INCA Renewtech to create BioPlastics. Our goal is to improve quality of life and allow the land to heal.

Women and girls in low-income countries are disproportionately likely to be affected by the plastic waste that’s flooding our planet.
