Cassalene polymer is derived from sustainable resources, i.e. bio-based raw materials (such as cassava starch & vegetable oil derivatives) and returns to nature in the form of CO2, H2O and biomass through a biodegradation process with the help of macro- and micro- organism
FACTS ABOUT CASSALENE
- CASSALENE provides a safe and environmentally sound alternative to conventional plastic films and bags. It will degrade in nature by action of micro-organism (e.g. bacteria, fungi). It can also be consumed safely by snails, insects, and other land and aquatic animals.
- CASSALENE film contains static dissipative property, with a surface resistivity of 107.5 - 1010 ohm/cm2, compared to HDPE/LDPE at 1013 ohm/cm2. There is potential to use CASSALENE as antistatic wrapping for electronic components, which are prone to interference caused by electrostatic.
- Excellent oxygen barrier (0,0235 mL/100in2.day) makes CASSALENE suitable to be used as protective layer in food and healthcare multi-layer flexible packaging.
- CASSALENE dissolves instantly in hot water, softens in cold water and leaves only a small amount of ash when burnt; as opposed to conventional plastic which leaves molten residue behind.
APPLICATION OF CASSALENE
Applicable for supermarkets, hotels, hospitals, department stores, restaurants, and those who wish to contribute to a better environment.
CASSALENE bags are available in two types; one with handle (T-shirt) and one with a grip-hole. We also provide customers with custom sizes, which may include logo imprint.
