- Plastic resins are generally used as adhesives and waterproofing on the surfaces of paper cups. By changing the plastic used to our biodegradable grade resin, in addition
to the usual recycling of the paper fiber or incineration methods of disposal, BioPBS paper cups can also be buried in soil where they will naturally biodegrade.
- Paper cups utilizing BioPBS resin were chosen as one of the winning innovative product ideas out of 480 submissions from 50 countries to the NEXTGEN CUP CHALLENGE, a competition sponsored by leaders of the global food-service industry to identify next generation cup solutions.
- As a specialist paper trading company, we are focused on combining biodegradable plastics with the natural biodegradable qualities of paper. In the future, we will expand our use of biodegradable plastic resins to paper containers other than cups and will utilize marine-grade biodegradable plastics currently under development.
