Poly lactic acid (PLA) bioplastics are gaining significant traction in China as the country continues to prioritize sustainability and environmental stewardship. With increasing awareness of environmental challenges and the need for eco-friendly solutions, PLA’s renewable, industrially compostable, and low-carbon footprint properties make it a compelling alternative to traditional fossil-based plastics.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

TotalEnergies Corbion is presenting Luminy\u00ae PLA bioplastics in Shanghai at Chinaplas 2024, April 23-26, Asia’s premier plastics and rubber trade fair. This is an opportunity to highlight the work in the region, with customers such as Changsu. It will also showcase how easily companies can transition to PLA bioplastics solutions and lower their products\u2019 carbon emissions by up to 75% versus conventional plastic solutions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
