BIOPOLYMERS FOR FOOD PACKAGING
INZEA® compostable biopolymers have the same functionalities, look and feel of conventional polymers and also contribute to reducing the problem of plastic waste management from packaging.
Sustainable packaging made with our biopolymers protects food, preserves its freshness and is highly attractive to consumers. INZEA offers a wide range of food contact biopolymers.
After use, packaging made from INZEA biopolymers can be reused as compost even if it contains organic waste. It doesn’t matter if the film or packaging is stained with food waste, as everything can be composted.
Our biopolymers range
Our range of biopolymers offers sealable grades that do not require corona post-treatment for printing processes and allow additional paper lamination processes. INZEA offers different degrees of transparency, roughness or stiffness depending on the properties of the original materials to be replicated: LDPE, HDPE or PP.
INZEA USES FOR FOOD
INZEA can be used in single or multi-layer structures.
