Industrial compostable extrusion coating is a method used to coat various substrates, such paper or cardboard, with a compostable polymer coating to produce biodegradable and compostable packaging materials.
While keeping the packaging’s usability throughout usage, this coating method improves its performance and sustainability.
Compostable polymers, which are made from renewable resources and may decompose into natural elements in composting environments, are used in the extrusion coating process.
These polymers are sustainable substitutes for conventional plastics made of petroleum.
the method of manufacturing in which a thin layer of the biodegradable polymer is applied to the surface of a substrate, such as paper, after it has been melted.
The substrate’s characteristics are improved as a result, making it more resistant to moisture, oil, and other environmental influences.
Sustainable and eco-friendly packaging materials can be made thanks to industrial biodegradable extrusion coating.
When compared to non-compostable materials, the finished coated substrate has a lower environmental impact because it is biodegradable and compostable.
Coffee cups, takeout containers, and meal trays are among the compostable food packaging items that are made using industrial compostable extrusion coating.
Other uses for it include bags, throwaway tableware, and single-use cutlery.
Sustainability and environmental responsibility are ideals that are in line with the use of industrial biodegradable extrusion coating.
Businesses and consumers can lessen their environmental impact and aid in easing the problems caused by conventional non-biodegradable plastics by using compostable packaging materials.
But it’s crucial to make sure the compostable packaging is disposed of properly.
The Global Industrial compostable extrusion coating market accounted for $XX Billion in 2023 and is anticipated to reach $XX Billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of XX% from 2024 to 2030.
Eco vio 70 PS14H6 is permitted for use in food-contact applications such as paper-based cups, bowls, and trays for dairy products, hot or cold beverages, snacks, and food wrappings.
Performance comparable to polyethylene in terms of processing, sealing, printability, and paper adherence.
By adding a certified home and industrial compostable grade for cold and hot food packaging, BASF expands the eco vio offering for extrusion coating on paper and board.
With high barrier qualities against liquids, fats, grease, and mineral oil as well as temperature stability at boiling water (up to 100°C), the new extrusion coating grade eco vio 70 PS14H6 is authorized for use in food contact applications.
Additionally, it has excellent adherence to a variety of papers and boards.
