EcoFLO™

EcoFlo-1

Eco-Flo is a sustainably sourced biopolymer technology suitable for use in gel packs that need to meet the home market demand for an eco-responsible alternative to current acrylate-based gels.  

Eco-Flo is 100% acrylate-free and does not contain any synthetic polymers. The unique Eco-Flo provides a non-splashing fluid for efficient gel pack filling while maintaining thermal performance compared to traditional acrylate-based gel packs. It can be used as a direct replacement for acrylate-based gellants. 

Eco-Flo dissolves readily with excess water, alleviating concerns over disposal methods and environmental impact.

What is EcoFlow material made of?

EcoFlow is composed of 99%+ water, along with a sustainably-sourced, renewable, plant-based gellant that is Generally Recognized as Safe (GRAS) by the FDA.

Is EcoFlow safe to pour down my drain?

EcoFlow poses a significantly lower risk of clogging household drains than other available gel pack materials.  We always recommend confirming the downstream drainability with your local municipality.

Is EcoFlow biodegradable?

Yes

Is EcoFlow compostable?

Yes.  It is best to add EcoFlow directly to compost, and then use that compost in garden beds or the like.  It can be poured directly into garden beds in small quantities.

Is EcoFlow safe?

Absolutely.  EcoFlow is composed of a sustainably sourced, renewable, plant-based gellant that is Generally Recognized as Safe (GRAS) by the FDA.  This same kind of material is found in many foods, to include ice cream and soup, as well as in various lotions and cosmetics, and many other items that we use every day.
