Guayule materials got a green stamp of approval on November 19 when the Arizona Technology Council  presented Yulex Corporation with the Green Innovator of the Year award at the Governor’s Celebration of Innovation gala in Phoenix. The award is given to an Arizona-based company in the technology industry each year, and recognizes Yulex’s scientific advancements and its commitment to providing environmentally supportive and sustainable products.  

Yulex Corporation (headquartered in the Greater Phoenix area since 2007) has put the region at the epicenter of a new sustainable, made-in-the-U.S.A. industry supplying  biobased material to many different industries that make medical, consumer and industrial products. The guayule-based product can be used in everything from shoes to mattresses, cleaning products and automotive products among others.

“Receiving this award is an honor and a testament to the clean tech business the Yulex team has built in Arizona,” says Jeff Martin, President and CEO of Yulex Corporation. “We’re experiencing growing demand for Yulex® natural rubber materials from manufacturers seeking to use renewable high-performance materials for their customers while minimizing the use of petroleum-based synthetics in their product designs.”
