Features at a glance
Bioplast 300 was designed for and is commonly used for a variety of food packaging in addition to a variety of other applications. Here are some of the blown film applications:
Ultra-light single-use bags
Single-use bags
Multi-use bags
Technical films
Vertical Form Film Seals (VFFS).
Bioplast 300 has a bio-based carbon share of 32% according to ISO 16620-2 or ASTM D6866. Products made of this material are completely biodegradable and recyclable. Depending on its thickness, this product is compostable according to EN13432 at both industrial composting facilities and under well-managed home composting conditions (NF T51-800).
Bioplast 300 was designed for use in blown film extrusion (LDPE or LLDPE). The material is printable. It can also be coloured with compostable masterbatches, is sealable (heat sealing, RF, ultra-sonic), and can be drawn down to 10 μm (with profile control, etc.)
