The applications
Futerro PLA grades have been successfully used in various transformation techniques, such as cast film, blown film, injection, thermoforming, blown moulding, ISBM and those employed to produce fibres.
Despite being a biopolymer, Futerro PLA perfectly complements polymers already available on the market, such as polyolefins, polystyrene, cellulose and polyester, used in a good number of applications. Due to its renewable origin, end-of-life management possibilities, special properties and specific employment requiring a drying stage as for PET, Futerro PLA provides transformers with new opportunities to meet changing specifications and market demands.
This PLA is indeed ideal for packaging. It can be transparent, opaque, flexible or rigid, with a gloss or transparency comparable to polystyrene and a rigidity modulus comparable to polyesters. Its aroma and odour-barrier properties coupled with resistance to attacks by fat make it a unique polymer for food packaging. It has the same heat-sealing capacities as polyolefins. |

Due to its high purity, the Futerro biopolymer is especially well suited for the fibres production or any other application that requires a semicrystalline grade.
