Bio-Based Starch Resins

Modifying natural starches to behave like thermoplastics — compostable, processable, and performance-matched to conventional plastics.

Tapioca-Based TPS (Flexible)For Films & Bags

Thermoplastic starch derived from cassava tubers. High amylopectin content delivers excellent elongation and flexibility — ideal for flexible packaging films and single-use bags.

High Elongation: >300% elongation at break — comparable to LLDPE. Suitable for blown film and cast film processes.
Oxygen Barrier: Inherently better oxygen barrier than LDPE at low humidity — ideal for fresh produce packaging that requires some breathability.
Certified Compostable: Breaks down in certified industrial composting within 30-90 days. Passes EN 13432 and ASTM D6400 tests.
Maize-Based TPS (Rigid)For Cutlery & Trays

Thermoplastic starch from maize with high amylose content. Forms a rigid, heat-stable material when blended with PBAT — ideal for single-use food service items.

Heat Stability: Maintains rigidity up to 80°C — handles hot soups, rice, and beverages without deforming.
LDPE Property Match: Flexural modulus of 25-35 MPa rivals LDPE — provides the same user experience as conventional plastic cutlery.
Carbon Footprint: Up to 60% reduction in carbon footprint vs. virgin LDPE, with full end-of-life composability.
PBAT/PLA Blend CompoundsCustom Blend

Pre-compounded blends of our TPS with PBAT (flexible) or PLA (rigid) for customers who need certified compostable performance with optimized mechanical properties.

Optimized Properties: Blend ratios are customized for your application — we balance cost, strength, and degradation rate.
Drop-In Replacement: Processes on standard extruders and injection moulding machines without modification.
Regulatory Ready: All blend formulations come with REACH compliance data and Halogen-Free certification for EU export.

Process Aids & Modifiers

Ensuring smooth machine operation, reduced cycle times, and compatibility of bio-based compounds with existing processing lines.

White DextrinFlow Modifier

A thermally converted starch that acts as a processing flow modifier and plasticizer in TPS compounds. Reduces melt viscosity for smoother extrusion at lower temperatures.

Viscosity Reduction: Lowers melt viscosity by 15-25% — allowing faster extrusion speeds and shorter cycle times on injection moulding machines.
Temperature Reduction: Allows processing at 10-15°C lower temperatures — reducing thermal degradation of starch and saving energy.
Anti-Blocking: Reduces surface tack in wound film rolls, preventing blocking (layers sticking together) during storage.
Carboxymethyl Starch (CMS)PBAT Compatibilizer

An ionic starch derivative that improves compatibility between hydrophilic starch and hydrophobic polyesters (PBAT, PLA) — acting as a surfactant at the interface between the two polymer phases.

Phase Compatibility: Reduces phase separation between starch and polyester, creating a more uniform, stronger blend microstructure.
Improved Tensile Properties: CMS-compatibilized blends show 20-30% improvement in tensile strength vs. uncompatibilized blends.
Moisture Resistance: Esterification of starch reduces its inherent hydrophilicity — improving moisture resistance of finished films.
Glycerol Plasticizer GradeSoftener

Food-grade glycerol used as a primary plasticizer for thermoplastic starch. Disrupts starch crystallinity, allowing it to flow and be processed like a thermoplastic above the glass transition temperature.

Essential Plasticizer: Without glycerol, starch would degrade before melting — glycerol is the key enabler of TPS processing.
Flexible Film Production: Higher glycerol content produces softer, more flexible films. Lower content produces stiffer sheet for thermoforming.
Bio-Based: Derived from biodiesel production — fully bio-based and REACH compliant for eco-label certification.
FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to the questions our clients ask most.

Q

Do I need special machinery to process your bio-polymer compounds?

A

No. Our TPS compounds are designed as drop-in replacements. They process on standard blown film extruders, cast film lines, and injection moulding machines used for LDPE/PP — requiring only minor temperature adjustments. We provide a processing guide with every product.

Q

What is the degradation time in home composting vs. industrial composting?

A

In certified industrial composting (58-60°C, >60% humidity), our films break down in 30-90 days. Home composting takes significantly longer — typically 6-12 months depending on conditions. Our products are certified for industrial composting. For home compostable certification, we offer specific formulations.

Q

Are the bio-polymer compounds food safe?

A

Yes. Our compounds are made from food-grade starch sources (tapioca and maize) and food-grade plasticizers. They meet FSSAI, EU food contact regulations (Regulation EC 10/2011), and FDA standards for food contact applications.

Q

How does cost compare to conventional LDPE?

A

Our TPS compounds are currently priced 20-30% higher than virgin LDPE. However, when factoring in plastic tax compliance (EPR), reduced packaging waste fees, and premium brand positioning, the total cost of ownership is competitive. Our prices are 20% lower than imported certified bio-polymers.
