The patented Turbo-Screws technology represents the culmination of more than 40 years of our firms foam technology development. We have a 10 year history of successfully using the licensing model to deliver a continuous stream of new products and services to the foam extrusion marketplace. After multiple years of development work with NatureWorks LLC on PLA foam, our company firmly believes licensing represents the lowest cost entry point for commercial PLA foam extrusion. The worlds largest PLA producer, NatureWorks LLC, agrees with us. Turbo-Screws technology is the preferred technology for foaming PLA in the world today. The Turbo-Screws license fee is a low fixed cost and is NOT related to production volumes. There is never a per unit/pound/kilogram charge or expense associated with Turbo-Screws technology.
