Biotransformation and Next-Gen Biodegradation technology provide a 100% environmentally friendly solution that safeguards reputational risks from uncontrolled disposal of branded plastic waste.
Our range of Cycle+ fully biodegradable eco-friendly food packaging products have the strength, safety and durability of conventional packaging. South Plastic Industry supports the high ethical standards of food manufacturers using biodegradable packaging through our 3R principles :
Reduce
Reuse
Recycle
Innovative biotransformation technology means natural processes break down Cycle+ plastics harmlessly on land. The process does not create microplastics or harmful chemicals that are damaging to the environment.
The innovative Cycle+ catalytic formulation ensures complete stability of the packaging material for a fixed time with no loss of strength or appearance.
Time is set depending on customer requirements, during the manufacturing process.
Packaging made with Cycle+ technology breaks down harmlessly on land.
Natural Biotransformation starts after service life finishes; air, soil moisture and UV light start the weathering process, eventually transforming the packaging into a bioavailable wax material that is no longer plastic and is not harmful to the environment.
The bioavailable wax is biologically transformed through mineralization by naturally occurring bacteria and fungi in the natural environment.
PE and PP films and rigids fully biodegrade as verified by 3rd party labs, leaving no microplastics behind.
Innovative biotransformation technology means natural processes break down Cycle+ plastics harmlessly on land. The process does not create microplastics or harmful chemicals that are damaging to the environment.
Cycle+ biotransformation maintains the high performance, clarity and quality of standard plastic packaging without disrupting your supply chain. Using it for your biodegradable food packaging adds benefits without any of the problems you experience with traditional biodegradable plastics.
Tested for land acute and chronic effects on earthworms and plants (complies with the requirements of the OECD 207 & 222 standards), and for freshwater acute and chronic toxicity on Daphnia (complies with the requirements of the OECD 202 & 211 standards)
