The overarching problem of climate change and the future shortage of fossil resources has accelerated the search for better concepts for plastics packaging. Approaches to reuse and recycle plastics in closed loops need to be developed, while making an efficient use of resources at all times.
With the corresponding demands of converters and with brand owners further driving the development of new solutions, bioplastics are expanding their reach into the packaging segment.
Bioplastics use resources as efficiently as currently possible, while keeping food safe, enduring high heat, reducing CO2 , and offering new recovery options. In short, bioplastics packaging offers the same qualities as conventional packaging, while exposing much greater sustainability features.
