Lightweight Fillers & Reinforcements
The roadblock between your boat and better performance is weight. Reducing the weight of the materials used across marine is creating blue oceans.
- Increase Strength While Reducing Cost, Weight, & Carbon Footprint
- Lead Your Industry In Sustainable Material Innovation
Transition to Natural FIber Filled Composites
Heartland helps marine OEMs and suppliers lower the weight and carbon footprint of their raw materials.
Our additives are 60% to 80% lighter than traditional mined and synthetic plastic additives like fiberglass.
Throughout The Supply Chain
Farmer
Heartland partners with corn, wheat, and soy farmers to embed industrial hemp into their crop rotation. Our USDA Grant has given us unique insights into industrial hemp farming, regenerative agriculture, and carbon sequestration.
Compounder
Heartland partners with plastic compounders to augment talc, calcium, and glass without any retooling costs. Our Imperium masterbatch solves dust, flammability, bonding, and bulk density problems typically associated with bio-based additives.
Converter
Heartland partners with plastic converters to ensure the hemp-filled resin is processed properly. Our team works alongside component part manufacturers to process natural fiber-filled plastic with the same molds used today.
Brand
Heartland is the sustainability partner for brands on their journey to reduce their carbon footprint. Our team helps create stakeholder alignment so companies can effectively communicate the value of sustainable material innovation.
