earth2earth^® Compostable is our new biodegradable film product. Due to its outstanding mechanical strength earth2earth^® Compostable offers a great down gauging potential needed for thin film applications like garbage bags, organic waste bags, T-shirt bags etc.

Our new earth2earth^® Compostable exhibits the following properties compared to PE-LD:

• · High strength, low-medium stiffness and high failure energy (dart drop)

• · Good processability on conventional blown film lines, e.g. for PE-HD, PE-MD

• · Down gauging to 8 µm possible, typical thicknesses: 10 – 120 µm

• · Broad sealing window required for sealing layers of multi-layer film structures

• · Weldable and printable in 8 colours by flexo printing

• · Leaves only carbon dioxide and water and leaves NO harmful residues after degradation.

• · Contains no polyethylene

• · No Chemical additive to speed degradation

• · Performs just like normal plastic bags but in a new innovative environmentally friendly way.

• · Heat Distortion temperature is 75 °C ( hot food ok)

• · Waterproof

• · Shelf life of two years

• · Biodegradable according to EN 13432

• · Biobased according to ASTM D 6866
