Materials Are Now GRS Certified

Dynamic Foam offers a line of high-performance EVA using a minimum of 50% post-consumer recycled EVA content.  There are several iON Element™ formulations available in sheet or finished component form.

Originally developed for footwear, both the iON Element Recycled EVAs and Recycled + BLOOM materials have a wide range of applications including automobiles, luggage, insulation and more.

These materials are now GRS Certified.  The Global Recycled Standard (GRS) are international, voluntary standards that set requirements for third-party certification of recycled input and chain of custody. The shared goal of the standards is to increase the use of recycled materials. The GRS includes additional criteria for social and environmental processing requirements and chemical restrictions.

“Sustainability initiatives continue to be a priority for footwear and other consumer goods brands.  We offer one of few post-consumer recycled EVAs on the market today.  We are excited to announce that our entire line of recycled and recycled + bio materials are now GRS Certified.”  -Katie O’Hara, Director of Account Management, Dynamic Foam. 

“BLOOM materials use algae to clean water, reduce CO2 emissions and replace plastics in consumer products. Combining our impact-focused BLOOM™ materials with post-consumer recycled materials from Dynamic Foam allow us to offer foams that can achieve a high level of performance while also communicating the Eco Fact benefits in a relatable way.” – Ryan Hunt, Co-Founder & CTO, Bloom.
