You can't recycle compost (where to put it?)

After the announcement about the production of bio-composted bags, we are often asked questions about starch bags. Today we will answer some of the most popular of them.

So, let's go:

 

1. What are biocomposted plastics made of?

The raw material for production is most often corn or potato starch (PLA + PBAT).

 

2. Bags made of potato or corn starch - what to choose?

If you still decide to choose bio-composted bags - we recommend choosing bags made of potato starch. Having studied the issue more objectively, we understand that the growing demand for bioplastics (namely, packages based on organic raw materials of Ukrainian production from corn starch) will stimulate enterprises to use agricultural land for raw materials for them, and not for growing food products Plus corn depletes the land quickly enough.

 

3. What makes bags based on potato starch better?

We work directly with BIOTEC © - a producer of granules from potato waste (which is why the number of products is limited). The production of such pellets does not require edible potatoes, and accordingly, it does not cause competition for agricultural land. The granule is certified. 

 

4. What will happen to the starch bags if they are simply thrown into the landfill? Are they recyclable?

No, a bag of starch in landfills behaves similarly to regular polyethylene. No, these bags are not recyclable, they can only be composted.

 

5. Is there a difference in strength between polyethylene and bio-compostable materials?

Yes, the difference is obvious. The mechanical properties of bioplastics, including load capacity, are significantly inferior to polyethylene. That is why the thickness of the biocomposted bag for a similar load capacity should be ordered at least 20% higher.

 

6. Why are bags made of starch more expensive than ordinary ones?

In the production process, a relatively large amount of waste is generated (since the material itself is much more fickle), and taking into account the fact that there are currently no reliable methods of re-processing bioplastics, and the material, in fact, is disposed of - its cost increases.

 

7. What position do we take today?

Today in Ukraine, we promote responsible consumption according to the principle "you can refuse packaging - refuse, you can't - use many times and recycle".

On biocomposted plastics, the opinion is ambiguous. We do not recommend using plastics labeled OK Compost Industrial (because there are no industrial landfills for composting in Ukraine), and OK Compost Home - to be used only by a conscious audience who will actually compost it at home.

Because, let's repeat - if a bio-composted bag is simply thrown into a landfill - nothing will happen to it and it will decompose in the same way as ordinary plastic.

And if you consider that ordinary plastic bags, after repeated use, can be recycled - give them a "new life", saving natural resources, and bio-composted bags are not recyclable, the second a priori cause more damage to the environment without proper disposal.

In our opinion, on bags capable of biodegradable as a result composting, it must be written that composting is a mandatory condition for decomposition, because the user, reacting to the inscriptions about the organic origin of the film, may mistakenly believe that the material will decompose in any case.

And are you ready to compost the bags ?

Packages in bulk from the manufacturer Chernigov Package

Branded plastic packaging is the manufacturer's business card

From the practical side of the issue, the importance of plastic packaging can hardly be overestimated. Bags and bags are used everywhere both for household purposes and as presentation gift options for packaging, therefore, they have a fairly wide target audience.

Stylish, competent presentation of information about the company, printed on the package, attracts the attention of the masses and arouses interest in the products of a particular manufacturer, which is a rather convenient and effective advertising move.

For wide distribution and continuous operation, say, for supplies to a store or supermarket, you can order and buy plastic advertising bags with a logo and bags of the most durable design (high pressure polyethylene) in bulk, with concise information about manufacturer, which will be advantageous in terms of unit price. If there is a small budgetary framework for promotional presentation actions, it makes sense to order more colorful bags in a small edition, or from other materials: paper, polypropylene, plastic bags.

Types of products and stages production

Our production base includes a full range of equipment for the production of branded packages on a turnkey basis, from the development of an electronic layout, selection of the shape and size of the package to the issuance of finished packaged packaging to the warehouse.

At the first stage, the extrusion (drawing) of a polymer sleeve - a film blank, from granules, with the addition of superconcentrate is performed. The sleeve is wound on a roller and treated with a corona charge. shape and size.

We offer bags of "T-shirt" type of increased strength for markets, household chemical goods stores, cafes, presentation versions of bags like "banana" (with a cut handle), as well as bags with a looped handle, on koto the image is always straightened and looks very prestigious. In addition, we carry out the production of packaging bags with and without printing, as well as bags for fillers and seedlings.

Advertising on packaging: methods of applying images and circulations

Our company applies images using silk-screen printing and flexo printing.

Silk-stencil is used for the production of bags with a circulation of 200 pieces and has two subtypes - manual application and automatic. This printing involves forcing ink through a monofilament mesh. Unlike flexo printing, the image looks more dense and voluminous.

Hand-made silk-screen is used for multicolor printing on a finished product. It differs from automatic in more accurate color registration. In addition, the banana bag results in a reinforced handle and an expressive bottom fold, which increases its strength. However, T-shirts cannot be printed in this way.

More opportunities are provided by automatic roll-to-roll printing followed by cutting the shape of a disposable bag.

Flexography is also carried out on two types of equipment: planetary and stack machines. A feature of flexo printing is the need for preliminary production of a cliche - a photopolymer plate, the payment for which is a one-time fee, and it can be used for several years.

If you need a minimum run load of 50 kg, stacking equipment is used. Its advantage is its relatively low cost. Better color registration, as well as uniform printing of "dies" is carried out by a planetary (drum) machine.

Thus, by contacting LLC "COMPANY" Chernigov Pakedzh ", you can order any necessary circulation of packages from the manufacturer in bulk in Ukraine with individual sizes, shapes, colors and advertising on bags at a bargain price, having received preliminary recommendations from your manager.
