Bags and Supermarket

Nowadays, managing supermarket carrier bags is a complex issue, due to the high volume of consumption, high volatility and high abandonment rate. As a result, in most cases these bags tend to end up in landfill or even in the sea, causing a huge environmental impact.

INZEA offers a wide range of biopolymers for the extrusion and manufacture of supermarket bags, including both reusable and lightweight bags, as well as ultra-lightweight bags, disposable gloves, and fresh food packaging with biodegradable and compostable properties.

Furthermore, these bags and consumables have mechanical properties equivalent to those of bags made from conventional plastics, both in terms of load-bearing capacity and tear resistance, as well as rigidity in their end use.
