BIOPOLYMERS

BIO PLASTICS, as stated by European Bioplastics, is a term to describe two types of plastic that are completely different from each other:
a) Plastics based on renewable sources ( the focus is the origin of the material being used)
b) Bio-degradable and compostable plastics in compliance with EN 13432 or ASTM D 6400 or similar standards ( the focus is the compostability of the final product)
Then we can supply 3 families of materials:

IamNATURE®

PHBH/BLEND

IamNature® is a compound made of one or more polymers of BIOS family, all of them strictly coming from renewable sources (bio-polymers).
The basic polymer is a polyhydroxyalkanoate that can be used as it is or blended with other bio-based products such as PLA or with other biodegradable materials such as PBS, PBSA, PBAT, and others.

KIOS

PA, PE, PP, TPE, etc.

From renewable sources, partially or entirely, but NON-BIODEGRADABLE.

BIOS

PLA, PHA, AMIDO, etc.

From renewable sources, partially or entirely, and BIODEGRADABLE
Although we were producing compounds in the various families listed above, we have mainly focused on BIOS family that divides in several under families, B1 and B2, B3, B5 and B6.
IamNature® belongs to this last family. Mainly based on PHB it is 100% natural.

ORIOS

PBS, PESTA

From fossil resources, but BIODEGRADABLE.
