Biotec Resin

An all new fully compostable and biodegradable material with food contact approval in Europe & USA
This revolutionary new material is based on a blend of starch and PLA and is certified as biodegradable. This material is also certified for compostability (dependent on material thickness / gauge) to EN:13432 and DIN CERTCO standards.

The Material is highly flexible, has good gas barrier properties and can be used for a wide range of packaged foods and plastic film replacements

This compostable material is easily thermoformable at low temperature and can be used in a wide range of applications. This material can also be used for injection moulding

Compostable with household compostable waste, to provide nutrients to the soil and closing the cradle to cradle cycle. Based on polylactic acid, derived from corn starch, the resin is modified to improve product flexibility whilst staying rigid. Improved barrier properties enhance product shelf life, it can be frozen without becoming brittle. The resin is processed at a reduced temperature thereby reducing the energy cost of production. A viable alternative to using non biodegradable packaging. When the product made from plant material has fulflled its role, it is composted and releases nutrients back into the soil and repeats the cycle.
