The Advantage BioFlex TM Hybrid Foams are the next generation in environmentally friendly foams made with EnviroFlex TM Foam Technology Formulations do not use alternative blowing agents Foam is manufactured without harmful CFC’s Meeting or exceeding all EPA requirements Improved cell integrity that means longer life for the product application Enhanced “hand” Better Sag or Support factors Excellent Tear/Tensile strength

The Advantage BioFlex TM Hybrid Foams – Performance Based with BiOH Polyols : Improved performance & durability over conventional solvent foams Potential lower Fire Retardant additive usage Improved UV resistance Improved Flame Lamination processing BiOH polyols come from the world’s most reliable source for bio-based polyols Foams made with BiOH polyols have a smaller environmental footprint

The Advantage BioFlex TM Hybrid Foams Performance & Durability Comparison (Based on 1.80 density foam) ** 30,000 cycle test

Support the American Farmer Meets consumers concern for “Green” Products Reduced energy demand Lessen dependency on fossil fuels including foreign crude oil Smaller Environmental Footprint It’s your World It’s your Choice... Choose TM Hybrid Foams

Support the American Farmer –Consumers would rather buy products that are “Made in America” –Soybeans are currently harvested in a surplus and exported from the United States Backup crops are available from South America in the event of a natural disaster or shortfall It’s your World It’s your Choice... Choose TM Hybrid Foams

The “green” market is moving more mainstream… –No longer just the traditional environmentalists –People like you & me who want to feel good about the choices they make Consumers want to make responsible choices that are more earth friendly, including retail purchases such as furniture and bedding... –Without sacrificing style and comfort –Without sacrificing quality –Without paying a premium Meets consumers concern for “Green” Products It’s your World It’s your Choice... Choose TM Hybrid Foams

USA Today – September 25, 2006 Eco-Consciousness is Increasing with Consumers Major corporations are focusing on Green Strategies to match consumer appeal “Conscientious Consumerism Drives Record New Product Launches in 2006” Trends are driven by “new products that take an ethical stance” such as sustainability, fair-trade, etc They predict that the trend will continue to grow by double digits to more than $57 Billion by 2011 “The eco-friendly movement is what Market Research.com calls America’s ‘shift from ego to eco’.”

Smaller Environmental Footprint 36% less global warming emissions Results based on Preliminary Life Cycle Analysis by Five Winds International It’s your World It’s your Choice... Choose TM Hybrid Foams

23% reduction in total energy demand Results based on Preliminary Life Cycle Analysis by Five Winds International It’s your World It’s your Choice... Choose TM Hybrid Foams

Lessen dependency on fossil fuels including foreign crude oil 61% reduction in non-renewable energy use Results based on Preliminary Life Cycle Analysis by Five Winds International It’s your World It’s your Choice... Choose TM Hybrid Foams

The Life Cycle Analysis estimates: 1 million lbs of petroleum-based polyols replaced with bio-based polyols, saves 2,200 barrels of crude oil. Flexible Foam Products, Inc. projects using more than 23 million lbs per year of bio- based polyols. BioFlex TM Hybrid Foams will save more than 50,000 barrels of oil per year. It’s your World It’s your Choice... Choose TM Hybrid Foams

It’s time to reconsider what goes into the foam you use, the consumer will...

It’s your World It’s your Choice... Choose TM Hybrid Foams “We are very excited to develop BioFlex TM Hybrid Foams. Our family business in Ohio includes soybean crop production, and that places us in the unique position to understand the importance of developing products from renewable resources. I view it as a priority for Flexible Foam Products, Inc. and all American manufacturers to reduce our dependency on fossil fuels, particularly foreign crude oil. This is the right choice for American industry, American farmers, the environment and American families.” -- Charles Moeller, Founder and Chairman of the Board for Flexible Foam Products, Inc.
