Biodegradable label film is a film material made of natural or synthetic polymers whose main characteristic is that they can be decomposed into harmless substances such as carbon dioxide, water and biomass through the action of microorganisms in the natural environment. This material was originally designed to reduce the environmental impact of plastic waste, especially for application scenarios that are difficult to recycle or prone to environmental pollution.
Features
- Environmental protection: compared with traditional plastics, biodegradable label film can be completely decomposed under specific conditions, reducing the pollution of natural resources such as soil and water.
- Versatility: According to different needs, many types of bio-based raw materials can be used to manufacture such label films, such as corn starch, cellulose, polylactic acid (PLA) and so on.
- Adaptability: The formulations can be adjusted according to the actual application scenarios to meet the requirements of different industries for labeling performance, such as heat resistance, water resistance or transparency.
- Cost-effective: Although the initial production costs may be higher than ordinary plastic products, with technological advances and the realization of large-scale production, but in the long term has a good economy and sustainable development potential.
Applications
- food packaging: used for direct contact packaging of agricultural products such as fruits and vegetables, to ensure food safety while also facilitating the disposal of waste.
- daily necessities marking: for cosmetic bottles, toiletries containers on the information printing, both beautiful and easy to recycle.
- logistics and transportation: as part of the protective film on the outer layer of express parcels, it helps to reduce the problem of plastic waste caused by over-packaging.
- medicine and health: also widely used in the field of drug packaging, to ensure the safety of drug storage and at the same time promote the dissemination of the concept of green environmental protection.
