World’s First-Ever BOPHA Film
NATIVIA® D822 is an innovative biobased film designed for home compostability, offering an alternative to fossil-based plastic packaging, especially for those applications which are contaminated with food residuals or not suitable for recycling.
This film is biaxially oriented and based on PHA (polyhydroxyalkanoates), a class of biopolymers known for their significant advantages: they are synthetized by bacteria from a wide variety of renewable carbon-rich feedstocks and they exhibit unique biodegradability properties in all
environments (including compost, soil, marine and fresh water).
World’s First-Ever BOPBSA Film
NATIVIA® D823 is an innovative biobased film designed for home compostability, offering an alternative to fossil-based plastic packaging, especially for those applications which are contaminated with food residuals or not suitable for recycling.
This film is biaxially oriented and based on PBSA (poly(butylene succinate-co-adipate)), a biopolymer that delivers exceptional sealing properties, and makes it an excellent choice for a wide variety of applications.
NATIVIA® SUSTAINABILITY ATTRIBUTES:
Biobased
NATIVIA® films are made from biobased polymers derived from renewable resources, helping to reduce dependency on limited fossil resources and to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. NATIVIA® BoPLA films are certified OK biobased-4 stars by TÜV AUSTRIA.
Industrial Compostability
NATIVIA® industrial compostable films are designed to be disposed of with food and organic waste.
Where permitted by local authorities, certified compostable packaging based on NATIVIA® BoPLA films can be disposed of in organic waste bins, for collection and processing by industrial composting facilities, where it will biodegrade into compost. NATIVIA® BoPLA films are certified for industrial compostability by DIN CERTCO according to the EN 13432 standard.
Home Compostability
NATIVIA® films belonging to the Plus family are made from a mix of biodegradable polymers and are specifically designed for home compostability.
