PolyC Plastics and Composites

PolyC Plastics and Composites is a materials science company that develops renewable, hemp-based biopolymer platform technologies designed to serve as cleaner and safer alternatives to traditional petroleum-based polymers. Founded by a research team including Dr. Greg Sotzing, the company specializes in molecular design and the synthesis of functional polymers that prioritize physical properties such as hydrophobicity, flexibility, transparency, and temperature resistance. Their proprietary compositions are engineered to eliminate toxic additives like PFAS, BPA, phthalates, and VOCs, offering materials that are biocompatible and capable of decomposing into benign, food-grade ingredients.

The company aims to address environmental and health concerns in sectors including electronics, packaging, and medical devices. By providing high-performance, sustainable polymer alternatives, PolyC seeks to replace legacy materials in demanding applications such as ECG electrodes and wearable sensors, where they have demonstrated performance parity or superiority over conventional materials. PolyC offers custom development services for their bioplastic formulations and is actively expanding its reach into medical-grade applications and human-machine interfaces, positioning their technology as a scalable solution for sustainable manufacturing and circular-economy initiatives.
