Vestamid Terra by Evonik

Vestamid Terra is a family of bio-based polyamide resins produced by Evonik Industries, partially derived from renewable castor oil feedstocks rather than petroleum. The product line includes PA610, PA1010, and PA612 variants with varying levels of bio-based content.

Vestamid Terra is produced by Evonik Industries, a German specialty chemicals company headquartered in Essen. It is marketed as part of Evonik's High Performance Polymers business segment, targeting manufacturers seeking sustainable engineering thermoplastics.

No, they are different materials made by different companies: Econyl is a regenerated nylon yarn produced by Aquafil from recycled waste such as fishing nets and carpet, while Vestamid Terra is Evonik's bio-based polyamide resin line. They address sustainability through different approaches—recycled content versus renewable feedstocks.

Vestamid Terra is used in automotive components such as fuel lines and structural parts, sporting goods, electronics housings, and industrial applications requiring durable lightweight thermoplastics. Its combination of mechanical strength and renewable content appeals to manufacturers looking to reduce their products' carbon footprint.
