With INZEA\u00ae, Nurel has developed a range of fully biodegradeable polymers. The environmentally sustainable biopolymers are extracted from renewable resources. INZEA\u00ae can be processed in standard polymer processing machinery by means of injection moulding, extrusion and thermoforming.<\/strong><\/p>\n

INZEA\u00ae are biobased polymers, up to 85 percent of which are produced from renewable resources like non-genetically modified polylactic acid (PLA) and starch. Thanks to optimal mechanical properties and processing parameters similar to those of polyolefins and styrene plastics, INZEA\u00ae is a sustainable replacement for petroleum-based polymers. It is possible to save large amounts of energy due to the low processing temperatures.<\/p>\n

The fields of application are diverse. All INZEA\u00ae products are suitable food contact materials in line with Regulation (EU) No. 10\/2011 on plastic. Therefore, the bioploymers are used in packaging products, for instance, in dimensionally stable shells, cups and, larger containers in retail and crockery and cutlery in gastronomy. INZEA\u00ae is also appropriate for products like planters and clamps for use in agri- and horticulture. These biodegrade in the ground, enriching the soil with nutrients: With the result that they can remain in the ground after the harvest.<\/p>\n

The INZEA\u00ae product range complies with USDA Certified Biobased Product Certification, which is based on the ASTM D6866 standard. The OK compost label for INZEA\u00ae guarantees compliance with EN 13432, the European standard for compostability in industrial compost plants. The associated ecotoxicity test shows that INZEA\u00ae degrades harmlessly in the soil and has no impact on the quality or growth of plants.<\/p>\n
