Sofiprime, PP Compounds: Improving Performance and Recyclability
Cabopol's Sofiprime compounds have been carefully engineered to provide outstanding performance while maintaining excellent oxygen and water vapor barrier properties, resulting in a significant competitive advantage over high-cost barrier polymers such as EVOH, PBT and aluminum.
By using Sofiprime compounds, the need for additional external secondary packaging, such as laminated bags, to enhance barrier properties can be eliminated. In addition, these compounds are easily recyclable, thus contributing to the circular economy. With Sofiprime compounds, packaging manufacturers can realize high-quality capsules that ensure product integrity and meet sustainability goals!
Biomind: Biodegradable and Compostable Capsule Solutions
To meet the growing demand for environmentally friendly packaging, Cabopol offers Biomind, a range of biodegradable and compostable compounds. These compounds are derived from renewable materials and are designed to degrade over time under ideal conditions, thus minimizing the impact on the environment.
Biomind compounds are designed specifically for capsules to be certified for OK Composting and OK Home Composting, which ensures that they meet stringent biodegradability standards. Despite their eco-friendly nature, these capsules offer performance characteristics comparable to traditional plastic capsules. The solution offers an attractive proposition for companies aiming to raise their sustainability profile and will appeal to environmentally conscious consumers.
Biomind PHA: Biodegradable and Compostable Capsule Solutions for Soil and Water
Cabopol's newest products are PHA-based compounds that are biodegradable and compostable from renewable resources, making them a sustainable option.Biomind PHA compounds not only provide resistance and barrier properties to ensure product integrity, but they will also break down naturally in soil and water, minimizing their environmental impact.
Significantly, only a few companies in Europe currently offer this advanced technology solution. The use of Biomind PHA compounds enables companies to offer both high performance and environmentally responsible packaging solutions that meet the needs of today's conscious consumers.
Cabopol is committed to contributing to the packaging industry by providing sustainable alternatives that carefully balance function, performance and environmental responsibility.
With the launch of its flagship products, Sofiprime and Biomind, as well as the innovative Biomind PHA compound, the company's goal is to enable companies to make informed and environmentally friendly decisions about their packaging needs, and is committed to playing its part in creating a greener future for the industry.
