Eastman (EMN) and Incipio to Promote Usage of Recycled Content
Read MoreHide Full Article
Eastman Chemical Company (EMN - Free Report) , along with Incipio Group, a global leader in consumer technology solutions, has announced a strategic partnership, under which the latter will incorporate recycled materials across its portfolio of brands. It will start using Eastman Tritan Renew copolyester, a durable, BPA-free material with 50% ISCC-certified recycled content, in select product lines across its brand portfolio starting later this year.
Tritan Renew is manufactured using Eastman's Advanced Circular Recycling technologies. It breaks down plastic waste to create new material. By using plastic waste instead of traditional fossil feedstock, the company diverts plastic from landfills or those being dumped in the ocean, thereby also reducing greenhouse gas emissions. Products made with Tritan Renew have no trade-offs in quality or clarity, unlike those made from mechanically recycled plastic.
Eastman noted that Incipio is taking bold steps toward its goal of aiming for sustainable materials. It is noteworthy that companies are striving for innovative methods for reducing the environmental impact, which is made possible by Eastman’s molecular recycling technology.
Incipio Group said that Eastman’s Tritan Renew will help drive forward its goal of finding a one-for-one sustainable substitute wherever possible for every material used in its products.
Shares of Eastman have grown 72.3% in a year compared with the industry’s rise of 53.3%. The estimated earnings growth rate for the company for the current year is pegged at 40.8%.

In the last-quarter earnings call, the company said that it is seeing continued momentum in the second quarter as it is gaining from innovation, strong market recovery and lower operating costs from its operations transformation program. It expects adjusted earnings per share between $8.25 and $8.75 for 2021. It also anticipates free cash flow to reach $1.1 billion this year.
Orion has a projected earnings growth rate of 61.5% for the current year. The company’s shares have grown 76.5% in a year.
Tronox has a projected earnings growth rate of 242.9% for the current year. The company’s shares have seen a surge of 204.1% in a year.
Univar has a projected earnings growth rate of 35.2% for the current year. The company’s shares have jumped 50.9% in a year.

If you’re looking for big gains, there couldn’t be a better time to get in on a young industry primed to skyrocket from $17.7 billion back in 2019 to an expected $73.6 billion by 2027.
After a clean sweep of 6 election referendums in 5 states, pot is now legal in 36 states plus D.C. Federal legalization is expected soon and that could be a still greater bonanza for investors. Even before the latest wave of legalization, Zacks Investment Research has recommended pot stocks that have shot up as high as +285.9%.
