Processing technology

Bioplastics offer a broad range of functionalities optimised for each type of application and, in addition, can reduce the impact on the environment.

Bioplastics can be processed into a vast array of products using conventional plastics processing technologies. The process parameters of the processing equipment simply have to be adjusted to the individual specification of each polymer.

An increasing number of converters transform bioplastic materials to products in all possible fields of applications. Several of the leading converters are members of European Bioplastics, such as Huhtamaki and Innovia.
