Build better with U.S. Soy! Learn how soybean-based chemistry improves product performance and sustainability for concrete and asphalt products at the United Soybean Board (USB) booth. U.S. Soy is used by such market leaders as Cargill, BioSpan, Crafco, SoyLei, Franmar, BioRestor, Aexcel, BioBlend and others. Range of applications include sealers, release agents, solvents, cleaners, dust suppressants, seal coats, rejuvenating oils, striping paint and emulsifiers, as well as thermoplastic elastomers and asphalt modifiers that improve crack and rut resistance even with high-recycled asphalt content. USB is an innovation leader partnering with industry to deliver sustainable solutions to every life, every day from U.S. Soy. www.soynewuses.org. | How do you make concrete products more sustainable and also high performing? Use soybean-based chemistry from U.S. Soy. The United Soybean Board (USB) booth will feature a display of soy-based products available for sustainable and renewable concrete applications, including the latest information on EPIC EL. EPIC EL is a new soy-based dust suppressant for roads, construction sites, etc. EPIC EL coats the gravel particles and binds the material, keeping it on the road surface for improved performance. The product was developed using research funding from USB and is licensed by BioBlend Renewable Resources. A new concrete protector will also be featured called PoreShield. PoreShield delivers proven protection against water, salt, and freeze/thaw damage to extend the life of concrete, making it last five to nine times longer. The product was developed using research funding from the United Soybean Board and is licensed by Crafco Inc. Other products on display will include concrete coatings, stains, sealers and cleaners, as well as release agents, curing agents and surface prep products from Cresset Chemical, Franmar/Blue Bear and EcoProCote. In addition to improved performance, soy-based products offer a range of benefits based on the application, such as being biodegradable, lower VOCs, improved indoor air quality, etc. U.S. Soy is renewable and sustainable by nature that is being used by companies like Goodyear, Ford, Rust-Oleum, Solenis, Cargill and hundreds of others to meet a growing consumer expectation for performance plus sustainability. USB is an innovation leader partnering with industry to deliver sustainable solutions to every life, every day from U.S. Soy. USB funds and supports research with industry to commercialize sustainable building and construction products and other industrial applications that are developed using the unique properties of soy-based chemical derivatives for performance advantages. Other advantages from U.S.-grown soybeans include versatility, cost, environmental and human health benefits, and sustainability. See the advantages of using U.S. Soy for sustainable and high performing concrete products at the USB exhibit, S12350. The farmer-led organization represents more than 500,000 U.S. soybean farmers in 31 states.

For rubber, industrial manufacturers are increasingly using U.S. Soy in tire, footwear and conveyor belt applications for its performance and sustainability benefits. Soybean oil improves tire tread flexibility for better traction, enhances abrasion resistance in heavy-duty uses, and reduces reliance on petroleum—all without compromise. Soybean oil is also being used in other various polymer applications, such as plasticizers, soy polyols and thermoset polymers. Visit the USB booth to learn how soy is driving innovation in industrial rubber and other polymer applications.

A comprehensive resource for feed manufacturers, professional nutritionists, feed formulators and livestock and poultry producers. | Better chemistry, better products from U.S. Soy! Learn how soybean-based chemistry is driving the future of sustainability and performance in personal care ingredients and formulations at the United Soybean Board (USB) exhibit. See next-generation, soy-based innovations including new oleo-furan sulfonates from Sironix Renewables developed with funding from USB. Other benefits of using U.S. Soy include: hydrating, plant-based emollients; clean-label, biodegradable formulations; low-VOC, high-performance functional ingredients like solvents and surfactants; and aligns with consumer demand for plant-based and sustainable products. Plus, soy-based surfactants are more biodegradable and less toxic than synthetic surfactants, and they can help reduce water pollution and greenhouse gas emissions. Today, more manufacturers are turning to renewable resources for raw materials. Renewable by nature, U.S. Soy offers a number of advantages including performance, versatility, cost and sustainability.
