Cereplast Compostables® resins are renewable, ecologically sound substitutes for petroleum-based plastic product, replacing nearly 100% of the petroleum-based additives used in traditional plastics. Cereplast Compostables® resins are using polymer and additives derived from starch and other renewable resources chemistry. These components are carefully blended together on state-of-the-art compounding equipments. All Cereplast Compostables® resins, including Compostable 1013, are certified as biodegradable and compostable in the United States and Europe, meeting BPI (Biodegradable Products Institute www.bpiworld.com) standards for compostability (ASTM6400D99, ASTM6868) and European Bioplastics Standards (EN13432). Compostable 1013 has been designed to have an excellent balance of low stiffness, toughness, and processability. Compostable 1013 can be processed on existing conventional electric and hydraulic reciprocating screw injection molding machines. Please see our processing guide for processing and material drying guidelines. This can be found at www.cereplast.com. |
