Recycled polypropylene without the asterisk.
EcoPrene is 100% post-consumer recycled black polypropylene — recovered from carpet, recompounded to a near-prime spec window. ASTM-tested, engineered as a drop-in for virgin PP where the recycled-content story has to survive a procurement audit. Mass-balance documentation, every shipment.
