Bioplastic
For Flexible Film Applications
Bio-Flex
Bio-Flex bioplastic is based partly, sometimes entirely, on natural raw materials (e.g. corn, sugar cane or castor oil) and therefore serves various film applications in the food industry. The certified biodegradability allows it to be used in the agricultural industry. Decomposable plant clips are thus a way to plow under the bioplastics without having to collect them.
The compostable Bio-Flex products are a moisture-resistant alternative to paper bags. They are used in flexible films such as agricultural, household and hygiene films, but also in injection molded products or thermoformed articles.
