PORTFOLIO

NATIVIA is a range of innovative bio-based films made of

Poly-Lactic-Acid (PLA), a bioplastic obtained from starch or sugar and

100% compostable. Thanks to the bio-based content and the lower consumption of energy, PLA delivers a lower carbon footprint and additional
end of life options compared to most oil-based plastics. All NATIVIA films have achieved the 4-star OK BIOBASED certificate from Vincotte
and are approved for composting according to EN 13432 norms by DinCertco.

End-of-life options
2 closed loops possible

PLA offers multiple options in terms of end of life.

Besides landfilling, there are other solutions which
allow to recover the energy value of PLA and
minimize the impact on our environment.
Once converted into packaging, NATIVIA can
take 2 different routes: a long loop, meaning
composting or incineration to create biomass and
CO2, which are then converted by the plants into
new sugar, or a short loop, which allows to recycle
PLA packaging to make virgin raw material (lactic
acid), can be reconverted again into packaging.
