leave a comment

Cereplast, Inc. designs and manufactures proprietary bio-based, renewable plastics which are used as substitutes for petroleum-based plastics in all major converting processes – such as injection molding, thermoforming, blow molding and extrusions – at a pricing structure that is competitive with petroleum based plastics.
Hewlett-Packard built this (photo) working prototype printer with a corn-based plastic case designed to last as long as the machine.
