Our bioplastics are the perfect product for these applications, providing the strength and versatility of conventional plastics whilst saving cost on disposal. Plant based sustainable sources appeal to end users in this sector whilst independent tests prove our products enhance soil fertility on decomposition.
Strimmer cord
Ever wondered where strimmer cord disappears to? The answer lies in thousands of tiny pieces of plastic that persist in the environment. Our polymer for this end-use provides a strong but flexible cord that will tackle the toughest jobs whilst biodegrading within months.
Mulch film
Bioplastics can be converted into fully opaque or semi transparent films that provide the ideal growing environment yet can be ploughed into the ground at the end of the growth cycle, providing soil nutrition for future seasons. Functional and effective, boosting yields whilst eliminating disposal costs.
Plant holders
Floral displays and tributes are enhanced when the supporting material is naturally derived. Our polymers can be converted into a wide range of shapes for most occasions and remembrance in the knowledge they will biodegrade naturally in situ.
Plant pots and trays
Horticulturalists now choose our bioplastics to make functional plant holders that are strong, water resistant and in a choice of colours. Our naturally based bioplastics appeal to gardeners and the horticultural supply chain with their ability to decompose naturally into a biomass.
Netting
Our bioplastics can be processed to form netting materials providing flexibility and strength but with an assurance of a fully biodegradable material. Tailored to ensure a full economic life, end-uses include soil stabilisation and eco-friendly gardening materials.
Plant supports/stakes
The strength to provide the necessary support in long extruded sections and designed to last long enough to do the job then breakdown into a biomass.
Vine ties and clips
Use of our materials is growing in viticulture. The ecological choice for green houses large and small are our bioplastics clips, ties and supports with the functionality required to support plants through their growth cycle yet with end-of-life characteristics that allow rapid composting.
Twine
Optimised for fibres and cords our materials provide an eco-logical choice for the greenhouse or garden that gives excellent functionality from a bioplastic. Bioplastics need moisture, temperature and microbes often found in soil to degrade allowing them to function in this end use for many seasons.
Tree protectors
Our bioplastics are being developed as an answer to forest litter, providing a guard that enables young trees to get the best possible start. Protection from vermin and hostile environment is assured early in the growing cycle but the material will bio-disintegrate as the tree passes into maturity. Unsightly litter is removed and collection costs on managed woodland eliminated.
