Automotive Industrial Hemp Update:
The automotive industry presents a substantial opportunity for us, particularly as global OEMs target to incorporate 200 pounds of renewable materials per vehicle. Our focus is on leveraging industrial hemp to replace plastics and additives in automotive applications. To drive this initiative, we have assembled a team of experienced material and application engineers with over 60 years of combined expertise at Stellantis.
We stand apart from many hemp startups by offering validated products that have passed rigorous tests with our container partner, ORBIS Corporation, and tier-one supplier, Flex-N-Gate, both suppliers to Stellantis. Through our strategic partnership with West Michigan Compounding, our materials can now be molded into automotive component containers. We are also working on substituting mica with hurd powder in protective plastic wraps used for shipping, replacing glass fiber in brackets, and enhancing decorative components in automotive interiors. With these innovations, we remain optimistic about securing purchase orders in the near future.

Through strategic partnerships, we are poised to scale operations both online and in retail, catering to the growing demand for natural wellness solutions. Our focus on refining brand identity and improving customer experience will further elevate Pro-11’s market presence.
