The leader in self-extinguishing and high-performance thermoplastic compounds, Lati, and the leading provider of sustainable hemp plastics, The Hemp Plastic Company, announced that the parties have signed an agreement for the distribution of The Hemp Plastic Company’s line of ecological hemp blended plastics. These hemp plastics are usable across diverse sectors in the plastics industry, from packaging to automotive, from furniture to toys, and many others.

The road to a greener future undertaken by Lati, one of the most important European producers of technical thermoplastics for engineering use, continues thanks to this agreement with The Hemp Plastic Company for the distribution of environmentally friendly compounds that can address the technical, safety and supply requirements of different industrial sectors.

“We are pleased to be working with Lati to bring our line of environmentally friendly hemp polymers to the European market. Hemp is one of nature’s greatest natural carbon absorbers, and together with a leader like Lati, we can accelerate our mutual customers’ transition to sustainable alternatives that reduce plastic and carbon emissions and are affordable, available in volume and relatively simple to implement”, said Glen Kayll, CEO of The Hemp Plastic Company.

"Sustainability has always been a fundamental value for Lati that guides the way of conducting business and relating to all stakeholders. Thanks to the partnership with The Hemp Plastic Company we provide an additional solution to the sustainability goals of our customers, and to reduce carbon emissions”, said Vittorio Gerola, Sales Director of Lati.
