Bioplastics: from starch to structure
Starch compounds that run on standard lines, perform, and compost at home
Certified-compostable film. Mulch films that break down on schedule on the field. Behind every circular plastics claim sits a material that actually has to perform on the line — and that pressure is intensifying. Regulators tighten compostability standards. Brands chase higher renewable-content targets. And consumers expect packaging they can feel good about.
Switching to bio-based materials doesn’t mean choosing between circularity goals and the melt consistency production lines depend on. Producers need starch-based grades with reliable mechanical properties and verified compostability documentation – grades that drop into your existing process equipment.
Let’s solve your challenge!
Together, we'll identify the right solution for your process, formulation, and labeling needs.
Bioplastic compounds: built to process, certified to compost
The shift toward sustainable materials starts with the right polymer base. From home-compostable film compounds and agricultural mulch films to versatile thermoplastic starches for extrusion and 3D-printing, our bio-based portfolio covers the full range of processing requirements and end-of-life scenarios. We offer our commercial customers renewable, biodegradable alternatives that deliver conventional mechanical performance — without the complex end-of-life handling.
