Celebrating Earth Day: A Thank You to Missouri Soybean Farmers

By BioSpan COO, Lindsey Hemmes

As the world celebrates Earth Day, one biotech company, BioSpan, is turning Missouri-grown soybeans into an eco-friendly way to make our highways and parking lots last longer. BioSpan not only removes carbon from the usual process of sealing pavement, but also makes taxpayer dollars go further.

During the recent World of Asphalt convention in St. Louis, BioSpan’s soybean-based RePlay asphalt pavement preservation sealant generated significant attention among construction companies, transportation administrators, and reporters. The enthusiastic response translated into substantial orders, signaling increased demand for Missouri-grown soybeans.

Soybean oil serves as the cornerstone of BioSpan’s innovative products, offering a renewable and eco-friendly alternative to traditional petroleum-based road treatments. Through solutions like RePlay, BioSpan significantly reduces carbon emissions linked to road maintenance, directly contributing to environmental health. These innovations owe their success entirely to the high-quality soybeans cultivated by Missouri farmers.

Every new application of soybean oil discovered and implemented by companies like BioSpan directly supports local farms and communities by increasing market demand for this versatile crop. Beyond roadway maintenance, soybeans are reshaping diverse industries such as biofuels, industrial lubricants, household cleaners, and paints. Each groundbreaking use highlights the essential role Missouri soybean farmers play in economic growth and environmental stewardship.

Missouri soybean farmers are vital partners in the journey toward a greener, healthier future. Their dedication enables continuous innovation at companies like BioSpan, paving the way for more environmentally friendly practices.
