LAKE SUCCESS N.Y., October 10, 2008 – Canon U.S.A, Inc., today announced that Canon Inc. and Toray Industries, Inc., have successfully developed a bio-based plastic that achieves the world's highest level of flame retardanceⁱ. The new bio-based plastic, which includes more than 25 percent (by weight) a plant-derived component, will be used in exterior plastic parts for Canon multifunction office systems to be launched beginning next year.

Plant-derived bio-based plastics, which curb increases in CO₂ and decrease the consumption of oil resources, offer material properties that effectively reduce environmental burden. To date, however, bio-based plastics have not performed as well as conventional petroleum-based plastics in such areas as flame retardance, impact resistance, heat resistance, and moldability, and therefore their use in products had been limited to a very few number of parts.
