To achieve oil and water resistance without traditional polyethylene (PE), two leading bio-based polymer technologies dominate the market:
Derived from renewable plant resources like corn starch, PLA is a widely established bio-based coating option for disposable food packaging.
Reliable Heat-Sealing: Offers excellent sealability on standard high-speed cup-forming machinery.
Crystal-Clear & Functional: Provides a smooth, glossy surface with robust moisture resistance for hot and cold beverages.
Industrial Compostable: Designed to break down efficiently under commercial composting conditions, helping brands achieve circular economy targets.
Representing the cutting edge of material science, PHA is produced via microbial fermentation and sets a new benchmark for true environmental degradation.
Home-Compostable & Marine Degradable: Unlike PLA—which typically requires industrial composting facilities—PHA breaks down naturally in soil, freshwater, and marine environments without leaving harmful microplastics.
Superior Thermal & Durability Performance: Delivers enhanced flexibility, heat resistance, and broad-spectrum grease/oil barrier capabilities.
PFAS-Free Assurance: Entirely free from fluorinated chemicals, ensuring complete consumer safety and compliance with stringent food contact regulations.
