Products & Markets

Citramalate is a platform chemical derived from biomass crops that is used to produce methyl methacrylate, a key ingredient in plastics like Plexiglas. Its end uses range from windows and automotive parts to adhesives, coatings, paints, and sealants.

3HP is a platform chemical derived from biomass crops that is used to create high-value products, including bioplastics, acrylic acid, and malonic acid. Its end uses range from superabsorbent diapers and personal care products to paints, coatings, and industrial adhesives.

Water-soluble pigments extracted from miscanthus for use as natural dyes. These plant-based colorants offer renewable alternatives for textiles and other applications.

High-yield miscanthus biomass makes it a strong candidate for sustainable aviation fuel. Its perennial root system stores carbon while supporting low-carbon fuel pathways.

Compressed miscanthus can be used alone or in high-energy composite pellets for renewable heat and power.

Commercially compostable molded-fiber packaging made from regenerative grasses, including miscanthus. Durable trays, plates, and clamshells replace plastic and return to soil.

Sustainable composite fiberboards made from natural fibers and recycled materials. Plant-based inputs create durable panels that can replace traditional wood products.

Commercial paper stock made with miscanthus fibers. Reduces reliance on wood pulp while delivering a high-quality paper with visible natural fiber.

Bio-based livestock feed barrels designed to replace steel or plastic in livestock feeding systems. Renewable fiber containers naturally biodegrade as livestock consume the supplement.

Dog food formulations using miscanthus fiber improve stool consistency and digestibility. The ingredient supports growing demand for natural, sustainable functional fibers.

Miscanthus fiber supports digestive regularity and stool quality in cats by providing a natural, functional fiber source. Research and commercial formulations show benefits similar to those marketed in high-fiber digestive products.

Miscanthus provides a renewable source of functional fiber for animal nutrition products. Companies such as Balchem use advanced processing and spray-drying technologies to incorporate biomass-derived ingredients into value-added feed and animal health applications.

Highly absorbent, low-dust miscanthus bedding for pets, poultry, and livestock. With the U.S. poultry sector using 2.9M+ tons annually, miscanthus offers a scalable, sustainable alternative.

Bio-based livestock feed barrels designed to replace steel or plastic in livestock feeding systems. Renewable fiber containers naturally biodegrade as livestock consume the supplement.

Miscanthus-based pet treats provide clean-label, non-GMO fiber for gut health. They deliver prebiotic and digestive benefits often found in multi-benefit supplements.
