Compostable Flexible Package

Did you know the warning that plastic products are causing a global crisis? While they were originally created for civilized convenience, plastic products are also harmful to the environment which is why nations around the world are striving to find solutions, such as:
 
  1. Avoid plastic products whenever possible.
  2. Recycle plastics and create them into products which made with recycled plastics such as clothes, trash cans, plastic bottles, and more.
  3. Set a clear timeline to limit plastics and ban the manufacturing and the use of some single-use plastics such as plastic bags, straws, and disposable tableware.
  4. Create lightweight packaging produced with single materials that can also function to block moisture and oxygen.
  5. Develop innovative multi-layered composite materials that are easily separated and recycled that can function as special products.
  6. Utilize biodegradable or compostable plastic materials.

Food packaging is usually formed by combining multi-layered composite materials, making them challenging to recycle and reuse. If they were produced using a single material, they could be added to recyclable materials.

Biodegradable plastics is the solution to massive amounts of packaging waste. One of the most popular materials in recent years is PLA. It has gained the attention of some eco-friendly companies as it meets the requirements of being a plant-based material that can be broken down naturally. The corn biomass plastic is used in products such as bottles and tableware.

 
polyethylene terephthalate

PET bottles (mineral water, soda, tea)

high-density polyethylene

Milk bottles, yogurt bottles, cleaning products

polyvinyl chloride

Egg cartons, raincoats, pipes

low-density polyethylene

Plastic bags, squeezable containers (such as ketchup bottles)

polypropylene

Soy milk, juice, and beverage bottles, water buckets, trash cans

polystyrene

Yakult bottles, Styrofoam material

other

All recyclable materials excluding the 6 types listed above are classified in this 7th type.


Environmental Friendly Plastics

Traditional plastics: These materials are mostly refined from petroleum. The gradual shortage of petroleum energy and the challenges of recycling plastic waste have become key issues of sustainable global development that require solutions.

Research into environmentally friendly plastics was born from the need to slow petroleum consumption and the worsening of the greenhouse effect. The world currently has 3 primary classifications for these types of plastics:
 
  1. Biodegradable:These plastics are returned to nature after being broken down by microorganisms, they are also called biodegradable plastics.
  2. Bio-based:Plastics made from bio or natural resources; this type of plastic substitute is called bio-based plastics.
  3. Recycled:Recycling ratio (can be reused), reduced use of resources (recyclable).

What are compostable plastics?

Indecomposable material

Just buried in the soil

After a month

After two and a half months

After five months

Common biodegradable material

Just buried in the soil

After a month

After two and a half months

After five months

Compostable material

Just buried in the soil

After a month

After two and a half months

After five months

All Packing is assertive in the research, improvement, innovation, and manufacturing of compostable plastic products. Our outstanding achievements have attracted both domestic and foreign food companies and we work closely with Germany/EU (DIN CERTCO); one of the greatest feats in All Packing Enterprise’s research in biodegradable materials is achieving the principle of “taken from nature, returned to nature after use” within the product lifecycle.
