TechnoCompound GmbH offers highly flexible biodegradable compounds under the name BioBatch . These polymers consist of biopolymers and special additives that are certified in accordance with DIN EN 13432 as well as ASTM D6400 by DIN CERTCO. Typical applications are garden and agricultural films, garbage bags, hygiene and packaging films. The increasing environmental awareness requires the plastics industry to develop even more sustainable solutions. Biodegradable plastics are sustainable under more than one aspect. They are biodegradable which means they are decomposed by certain bacteria, thus offering an alternative to conventional waste disposal. Furthermore they are made at least partially from renewable raw materials, thus minimizing the carbon footprint. TechnoCompound is currently working on further enhancements of the existing product portfolio which will make them even more attractive. They are focused on BioBatch variations with an even higher bio-based content and improved biodegradability.Information provided by TechnoCompound |
