Sustainable & Plant-Derived Products Supplier

Sustainability means different things in different industries, such as renewable raw materials, bio-based content, biodegradability or lower energy use. NTC does not make sustainability or certification claims for products on this site. This page groups products by what they are made from, as described by the producers: plant-derived oils, fatty acids and esters, natural gums, waxes and resins, and biological products such as enzymes and microbial cultures. If you need supporting documentation such as bio-based content, ask when you request a quote.

NTC supplies sustainable products through chemical distribution and can include them in formulations through custom blending and toll manufacturing. Browse the list below or request a quote.

Sustainable products FAQ

Are these products certified sustainable?

NTC does not make sustainability or certification claims on this site. We list products by raw-material origin as described by the producers. If you need a specific certification or bio-based content figure, ask when you request a quote and we will check what documentation exists.

What does plant-derived mean?

That the main raw material comes from plants, such as vegetable oils, guar beans or pine resin, rather than from petroleum or minerals. It does not by itself say anything about environmental impact.

Can you supply a bio-based alternative to a product I use now?

Send the product name and application. We will look for plant-derived options from our list and tell you how they differ in performance.

How is pricing set?

Pricing is by quote, based on product, grade, quantity, packaging and delivery location. Request a quote online or call 704-659-3682.

Can I get the SDS and specification?

Yes. Ask for the Safety Data Sheet and specification or certificate of analysis when you request a quote.

Can you get better pricing on bulk sustainable products?

Often, yes. NTC combines your order with our other clients' volume to secure bulk pricing most companies can't get on their own, and passes the savings directly to you.
