Compostable water-soluble H2OK bag
Coplasem has introduced an eco-friendly compostable water-soluble bag developed at the prestigious LMPE (Laboratorio de Materiales Polímeros Ecocompatibles- Eco-compatible Polymer Materials Laboratory), European leader in the development of ecological polymers. The main characteristic of this bag is that it dissolves in water or decomposes in the environment in accordance with the EN-13432.
These bags are made from polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) and other natural materials and they are an attractive solution for multiple sectors interested in sustainable solutions such as the retail sector, supermarkets, mail and courier sector, clothes packaging, dry waste, etc.
The water-soluble bags H2OK are available in different formats, sizes, thicknesses and colours. They are customisable to the requirements of the client.
Description
Water-soluble bags have enormous advantages, not only over traditional (PP-PE) plastic bags but also over compostable plastic bags as they do not require composting. WATER-SOLUBLE The water-soluble bags H2OK dissolve without trace when submerged in water above 60ºC. BIODEGRADABLE the water-soluble bags H2OK, once dissolved in water are converted by microorganisms into H20 and CO2. MICRO-PLASTIC FREE Unlike traditional polyethylene (PE) or polypropylene (PP) bags, the water-soluble bags H2OK, once dissolved, do not generate micro-plastic. BIO-FRIENDLY The water-soluble bags H2OK dissolve slowly in cold water so they do not damage marine, lake nor river ecosystems. RAIN-RESISTANT The water-soluble bags H2OK are especially formulated to resist moderate rainfall for moderate periods. EXTRA-STRONG The water-soluble bags H2OK are made from polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) which has greater elasticity than traditional plastics. COMPOSTABLE The water-soluble bags H2OK are also compostable in accordance with the standard EN 13432 as certified by TÜV Rheinland of Germany. TRACEABILITY The water-soluble bags H2OK are traceable which guarantees that the customer is using 100% original, eco-friendly bags. PP-PE FREE The water-soluble bags H2OK are certified as free from polyethylene (PE) or polypropylene (PP) by the LMPE of Italy.
