Renegade Plastics closes pre-Seed investment led by Schneider Resources Holding.
GREEN BAY, Wis., May 8, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Renegade Plastics®, a leader in making coated fabrics more sustainable, is excited to announce closing a pre-Seed investment led by Schneider Resources Holding. The investment will help expand Renegade's team and accelerate growth into new markets that are eager for a non-toxic and more sustainable alternative to vinyl-coated industrial fabrics.
Established in 2021, Renegade Plastics® is addressing the plastic problem by building a circular economy for coated fabrics, based on a proprietary polypropylene-based coated fabric that is non-toxic and able to be recycled, while lower carbon and lighter weight than the vinyl-coated fabrics that currently dominate the industry.
"Renegade is leading the coated fabric industry in a more sustainable direction," said Renegade CEO Tony Ehrbar. "As awareness of the environmental and health problems associated with vinyl, PFAS, and phthalates increase, users of coated fabrics are increasingly looking for a non-toxic and more sustainable alternative. Renegade not only provides the fabric solution that customers are looking for, but also works with customers to ensure that their products do not end up in the landfill."
