Compostable plastics are becoming increasingly popular as an environmentally friendly alternative to traditional plastics. These plastics are made from biodegradable materials such as corn starch, which breaks down naturally in the environment without releasing harmful toxins. Compostable plastics offer a sustainable solution for packaging and product manufacturing, reducing the negative environmental impact of plastic waste.
Biodegradable plastic is an environmentally friendly alternative to traditional plastics. It is made from organic materials that can be easily broken down by bacteria and other natural processes. This plastic reduces waste in landfills and oceans, minimizing the impact on the environment.
If sustainability and eco-responsibility are at the heart of your business, then our compostable biodegradable bags are a must. Our compostable plastic bags are certified to Australian (AS-4736, AS5810), American (ASTM D 6400) and European (EN13432) standards. They are made from natural starch and contain no polyethylene or other harmful plastics. These bags are as durable and easy to use as regular plastic, but are fully biodegradable when composted with organic waste in a municipal composting facility.
Packaging of food and other products
Disposable items such as food tableware
Organic waste containers
Horticulture and other agricultural applications
Various injection molded products
Film and sheet applications
Thermoforming applications
We respond to the demand for more environmentally sustainable films. Compostable bags for big brands and small businesses seeking to stand out through product packaging that offers a greener solution.
Made from 100% plant-based plastic, our compostable bags are compostable, biodegradable and recyclable. Our compostable bags are made from plant-based resources such as starch or corn. They have the same properties in terms of resistance as traditional fossil-sourced plastic bags. Compostable films are translucent white and can be made in a variety of sizes and dimensions. They are ideal for transporting a variety of products, including food.
Through an industrial composting process, these films are converted into natural fertilizer for organic farming, so we are recycling and reusing the resource.
We know that consumers are increasingly aware of the impact of their consumption habits and are choosing materials that have less impact on the environment, which is why Packaging has positioned itself at the forefront of materials in the packaging industry by adapting our production systems to meet these new demands.

Are there biodegradable products?
Biodegradable is the term used to describe the process by which microorganisms consume organic matter and is the name of one of the test criteria in the ASTM Standard Specification for Compostability. It is incorrect to call a certified compostable product “biodegradable”.
What are compostable plastics?
Compostable plastics are plastic products made from plant materials that decompose under certain conditions. Examples of compostable plastics include PLA, which is made from corn starch, and PHA, which is made from corn and vegetable oil. products made from these materials are compostable; many have been tested and certified as compostable in commercial facilities.
Are compostable products biodegradable?
Many compostable products have been tested and can be broken down in commercial composting facilities. These products have been tested by the Biodegradable Products Institute or the Alliance of Compost Manufacturers and meet the requirements of ASTM 6400 and 6868. These products break down through biological processes in commercial composting. They do not break down in landfills or other environments.
