UBQ ClimaPos Honored for Sustainable Innovation at Edison Awards
UBQ Materials, headquartered in Miami, U.S., receives the Silver 2025 Edison Best New Product Award in the Carbon Reduction Through Advanced Materials category for its innovative product, UBQ ClimaPos. This bio-based thermoplastic composite is designed to be blended with conventional plastics in durable and semi-durable applications, helping drive progress toward carbon-neutral and climate-positive goals.
Materials that matter
Incorporating just 10% UBQ ClimaPos into products can reduce the carbon footprint of goods and supply chains.
For every ton of UBQ produced in UBQ Materials’ Netherlands facility:
- 5 tons of landfill waste is diverted
- 0 ton of plastic is replaced
- 02 tons of net carbon is removed—equivalent to the greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions of a gas-powered car driving 2,596 miles
They reduce reliance on petroleum-based plastics, lowers GHG emissions generated by waste in landfills, and supports a circular economy.
“Winning the 2025 Edison Award affirms the value of our product and its potential to significantly impact the world,” said Albert Douer, Chairman and CEO of UBQ Materials. “This recognition reinforces that UBQ is a material that matters—making sustainability achievable for consumers and helping retailers meet their environmental goals. UBQ Materials leads the way in developing sustainable materials to benefit the planet and future generations.”
Frank Bonafilia, executive director of the Edison Awards, added “UBQ ClimaPos exemplifies the power of innovation. With its unique technology, UBQ Materials is well on their way to converting waste from a global challenge into a scalable, sustainable solution.”
Giving waste a new life
UBQ Materials’ pioneering solution emerges as a powerful response to our planet’s growing waste problem.
UBQ ClimaPos is created by an energy-efficient, patented technology that converts mixed household waste—including organic and hard-to-recycle materials—into a material suitable for a range of everyday products that are good for people, planet, and profit.
