PLA is made  renewable plant resources  can be completely degraded  water  carbon dioxide under industrial composting conditions. It is currently an environmentally friendly packaging material favored by policy guidance  high-end brands.

Core advantages

Fully biodegradable, low-carbon  environmentally friendly

The raw materials come  renewable plants such as corn  cassava,  are  petroleum based. They can be completely degraded within 180 days in industrial composting environments without plastic residue. It is a truly green packaging that can effectively convey the brand's environmental protection concept.

Food grade safety, no plasticizer risk

The material is natural  safe, free of harmful substances such as bisphenol A  plasticizers,  stable in contact with cold food without migration. It meets the needs of consumers for healthy dining  is suitable for catering brands that focus on natural  organic ingredients.

Warm texture, strong sense of luxury

Main disadvantages

Poor temperature resistance  multiple usage restrictions

The upper limit of heat resistance is about 55 ℃,  it cannot be microwave heated  used to hold warm food. The box body is prone to softening  stiffness reduction in high temperature  high humidity environments,  is only suitable for use in cold food  room temperature scenarios.

High cost

The raw material prices  processing costs are significantly higher than BOPS  PET,  the cost per box is usually 1.5 to 2 times that of ordinary plastic boxes, which will increase the packaging budget of stores.

Degradation requires specific conditions

Only under the conditions of temperature, humidity,  microbial community in industrial composting can it be completely degraded. The degradation rate is slow in ordinary natural environments  landfill of household waste,  the environmental value depends on a supporting recycling  treatment system.

Typical Applicable Scenarios

High end Japanese restaurants, environmentally friendly themed restaurants, organic light food brands, cities  scenes with plastic ban policies.
