Pester pac and Solutum Launches a New Eco-Friendly Packaging Film
Kanesa D — September 26, 2024Pester pac and Solutum have collaborated to produce a new packaging film that is sustainable and robust, allowing businesses to prioritize mindful practices when it comes to film materials. The film, designed to break down fully in various environments such as soil and water without generating harmful microplastics, delivers both sustainability and performance. Its high tear strength also supports material reduction, enabling the use of thinner films that lead to increased cost savings.
This new product is certified by Interseroh Made for Recycling, TÜV Industrial Composting, TÜV Soil Biodegradable, and the self-declared International Organization for Standardization 14020 Water Biodegradable.
“At the end of its life cycle, Solutum’s material decomposes completely. When handled in a managed environment, Solutum biodegrades in industrial composting plants, and in unmanaged environments, including oceans, rivers or when openly dumped, Solutum film biodegrades in soil and natural waters," said Solutum founder and president Sharon Barak.
