A lot of our food is packaged in plastic. Plastic is bad for our environment because it is not biodegradable. A better alternative to plastic packaging is bio packaging:
Bio Packaging is based on the latest generation of high-performance films made of 100% organic raw materials.
Biofilms, whether cellophane or PLA (polylactide = lactic acids) can be printed in various colours without any negative impact on industrial composting. They are EN 13432 certified and can be supplied as roll stock or premade pouches just like traditional polyolefin packaging materials.
Further applications of Bio Packaging include lidding films for sealing against deep-drawn PLA trays. Like conventional packaging materials, they provide a reliable protection of the product (dried fruit, cereals, candies, teas and much more), with an optimal aroma protection and resistance against products with high fat contents.
