Biotransformation & Biodegradation

Cycle+ Breaks Down Completely & Harmlessly Without Microplastics

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.

1 | Service Life

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.

2 | Weathering

2-4 months

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.

3 | Biodegradation

Up to 24 months

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.

4 | Final Result

It Can Be Easy To Be Green

Cycle+ Breaks Down Completely & Harmlessly Without Microplastics

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.

You Won’t Believe It’s Biodegradable

Biodegradable Packaging Does Not Affect Function & Appearance

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.

  • Same Product Performance & Function
  • Use Existing Supply Chain & Manufacturing Processes
  • Easy Implementation
