One World Products, Inc. (OTC: OWPC), soon to be renamed Isiah Enterprises, announced that a major automotive OEM has approved the company’s cellulose fiber-filled masterbatch for use in near-future vehicle models. The approval validates One World Products’ bio-based masterbatch as a performance-proven, production-ready alternative to traditional plastics and positions the company as a key supplier in the global shift to renewable and circular manufacturing.
The OEM approval headlines a strong close to October. The company surpassed 100,000 pounds of pelletized rubber shipped from its Eco Bio Plastics facility in Midland, Michigan, and expanded partnerships across the sustainability ecosystem, including pelletizing rubber for Full Circle Technologies. Together, these milestones reflect One World Products’ rapid evolution into a vertically integrated materials innovator powering the next generation of automotive and industrial products.
One World Products continues to advance a portfolio that includes cellulose, hemp, and bio-feed masterbatches alongside rubber masterbatch and pelletized compounds. These materials are engineered to lower carbon impact, improve weight and performance metrics, and integrate with existing OEM manufacturing systems.
“The OEM approval is a turning point; it confirms that our materials are not just sustainable, they are ready for the production line,” said Isiah Thomas, Chairman and CEO of One World Products. “Crossing 100,000 pounds of pelletized rubber shipped in the same month proves that our innovation scales with industrial reliability. From Stellantis, West Michigan Compounding, Flex-N-Gate, and Full Circle Technologies, our partnerships and customers show that the future of manufacturing is sustainable, circular, and inclusive.”
October also featured strategic plant visits from Stellantis and Dow, two global industry leaders that are collaborating with One World Products on next-generation sustainable material systems. These engagements highlight growing industry recognition of the company’s technology, manufacturing capability, and environmental leadership.
This milestone underscores the growing demand for sustainable materials in automotive manufacturing. As the industry seeks to reduce its carbon footprint, bio-based alternatives like cellulose fiber-filled masterbatch offer a viable path forward. The approval from a major OEM signals that these materials can meet the rigorous performance and safety standards required for production vehicles.
One World Products’ achievement also reflects broader trends in the automotive supply chain, where companies are increasingly partnering with innovators to develop circular solutions. The company’s partnerships with Stellantis, Dow, Flex-N-Gate, and others demonstrate a collaborative approach to sustainability that could serve as a model for the industry.
With the OEM approval in hand, One World Products is poised to scale its production and expand its customer base. The company’s ability to ship over 100,000 pounds of pelletized rubber in a single month indicates that its manufacturing processes are robust enough to meet industrial demand. As more automakers seek to incorporate sustainable materials, One World Products is well-positioned to become a key supplier.
