Cornstarch Cutlery

The new 300A cutlery is an ecologically and environmentally friendly disposable cutlery made from a starch based polymer and chalk. As opposed to the previous biodegradable cutlery, 300A cutlery is white in colour and has better resistance to heat. Its performance is similar to conventional thermoplastics but, being based on corn starch, is completely biodegradable in a biologically active environment. The rate of biodegradation depends on the size and shape of the article but is similar to the one usually reached by organic waste. Best results are achieved in a commercial composting facility.

Sugarcane Fibre Bowls, Plates & Cups

The sugarcane fibre bowls, plates and cups are very similar to conventional paper products. However, they have the added advantage of being made from a readily renewable (and sustainable) resource instead of woodchips. The products are uncoated (ie no plastic) and are bleached by oxygen only. This Elemental Chlorine Free (ECF) process does not detract from their look and/or functionality. Sugarcane fibre products are suitable for hot food.

Clear PLA Products

The clear cups, lids, foodboxes, bowls, punnets and straws are manufactured from polylactide (PLA), a renewable resource-based resin developed by Cargill. The material uses carbon stored in starch plants (usually corn), which can be broken down into sugars. The carbon and other elements in these natural sugars are then used to make this natural "plastic" through a process of fermentation. PLA biodegrades in approx. 4-6 months. Best results are achieved in a commercial composting facility. PLA products are NOT suitable for HOT food/drinks.

Cornstarch Bags

All compost bags, shopping bags, "Doggy Business" bags and Boutique bags are made in Australia from a starch based polymer (Mater-Bi). The film has a biodegradation time of 20-45 days in composting conditions breaking down into water, carbon dioxide and biomass. Bags comply with ASTM D6400-99; Din 45900 and OK Compost standards (EN 13432) for biodegradability and compostability. Compost bags are available in sizes: 10 litre, 20 litre, 30 litre, 70 litre and 240 litre "wheelie bin" size.

Also ... Distributors Wanted

Distributors are needed in most regions of Australia including some capital cities. Good wholesale prices and support can be offered.
