Biobased and Biodegradable Films: sustainable solutions by Taghleef Industries
In today’s world, more and more consumers and companies are looking for packaging solutions that respect the environment and reduce impact. biobased and Biodegradable films offer concrete answers to these needs, combining high performance with more environmentally friendly features. Taghleef Industries, a global leader in flexible packaging films is at the forefront of offering sustainable solutions that help companies achieve their goals.
Benefits of biodegradable packaging films
Biobased and biodegradable films represent a major step forward in packaging industry innovation. Organic recycling is a clear advantage especially when the packaging is highly contaminated with product residues. In addition, if separate collection of organic waste is not available, it can be disposed of as residual waste and incinerated, producing renewable energy.
Sustainable solutions with biobased films
Biobased films represent another crucial innovation for sustainable packaging. Unlike conventional fossil-based plastics, bio-based films are produced using renewable resources that help reduce greenhouse gas emissions associated with conventional plastic production.
Taghleef Industries is a pioneer in the development of biobased and biodegradable films designed to meet the needs of different industries, for food and non-food applications. Our range of solutions combines features such as transparency, strength and printability with a more sustainable composition that also provides excellent barriers to flavors and mineral oils.
Environmental impact of biodegradable films
One of the main advantages of biodegradable films is their end-of-life: NATIVIA® films, once converted into packaging and after their use, are ideally disposed of in organic waste. They are certified according to EN 13432 so, under industrial composting conditions, they completely biodegrade within six months into CO2, water and humus, a soil nutrient.
Having invested in this type of innovation for a long time, Taghleef is a pioneer in research and is committed to providing products that have minimal impact on the environment, supporting companies to transition to more sustainable practices.
Applications for compostable packaging films
Biobased and biodegradable films offer an ideal option for industries where end-of-life is a key consideration, such as food. Because of their characteristics, NATIVIA® films can be used as a mono-web or in lamination with paper or other similar films.
Taghleef Industries’ biobased and biodegradable films not only meet the functional needs of packaging, but also offer a competitive advantage to brands that want to align with consumer expectations in terms of sustainability, because they have been awarded the four-star OK Biobased certificate by TUV AUSTRIA and are approved for industrial composting according to EN 13432 by DIN CERTCO.
