In many countries, there is a tradition of using very thin plastic grocery bags. One reason is to reduce plastic waste. However, as these bags often tend to be rather weak, double-bagging (using one bag inside another) is frequently practiced. GAIA startpage The Compostable Solution to Double Bagging The Compostable Solution to Double Bagging In many countries, there is a tradition of using very thin plastic grocery bags. One reason is to reduce plastic waste. However, as these bags often tend to be rather weak, double-bagging (using one bag inside another) is frequently practiced. Bags made from Biodolomer are different. To start with, they’re not plastic bags – they just look and feel like they are. Biodolomer is a compostable material based on limestone, patented in Sweden about 15 years ago. Biodolomer granules can be used in almost all production techniques where plastic is typically applied: film blowing, thermoforming, extrusion coating, injection moulding, etc. And it is particularly well-suited for bags of all kinds. A Biodolomer grocery bag is strong enough to hold up to 25 lbs and can be reused up to 25 times. It is certified compostable both in the USA and the EU – meaning it transforms into nutrient-rich mulch, full of essential minerals, even in a home compost. It does not produce any microplastics, and if incinerated, it results in around 80% less CO₂ than a regular plastic bag. On top of that – when you use Biodolomer in your production, you get higher output and consume less energy compared to traditional plastic.Drop us a line and we’ll show you how Biodolomer can help make your packaging more sustainable.

Replacing plastics with compostable Biodolomer biomaterial for disposable plates and glasses drastically reduces waste and CO2 emissions without compromising quality or functionality. If disposed of in nature by accident, it biodegrades without leaving any microplastics. GAIA startpage Disposable plates Disposable plates Disposable plates and glasses are a big source of pollution. They create a lot of waste and use many resources. And if they find themselves in the wrong place, they will stay in nature for a long time. Using compostable Biodolomer® biomaterial instead of plastic drastically reduces waste and CO2 emissions. While still achieving precisely the same function. And anything that accidentally finds itself in nature will biodegrade and disappear. Leaving no microplastics. Contact us

Planting pots made from compostable Biodolomer biomaterial will biodegrade without leaving any microplastics if left in the ground. Compared with pots and trays made with plastics, they also reduce waste and CO2 emissions without compromising quality or function. GAIA startpage Planting pots and trays Planting pots and trays Disposable plastic planting pots and trays result in a lot of waste and use many resources in production. Plus they cause substantial CO2 emissions. If they are made from compostable Biodolomer® biomaterial, things are very different. Then you can even leave the pots on the plants when you plant them in the soil – as the pots will biodegrade and disappear by themselves. Leaving no microplastics. Contact us

Making toothbrushes out of compostable Biodolomer® biomaterial instead of plastics will drastically reduce waste and CO2 emissions. The function remains the same, but any product that accidentally finds itself in nature will biodegrade and disappear without leaving any microplastics. GAIA startpage Toothbrushes Toothbrushes Traditionally, plastic is used to produce many things, toothbrushes for example. By making toothbrushes out of compostable Biodolomer® biomaterial, you drastically reduce waste and CO2 emissions. While still achieving precisely the same function. And a toothbrush that accidentally finds itself in nature will biodegrade and disappear. Leaving no microplastics. Contact us

Replacing plastics with compostable Biodolomer biomaterial for fruit stickers will drastically reduce waste and CO2 emissions without compromising function or quality. They also biodegrade without leaving any microplastics if they are accidentally disposed of in nature. GAIA startpage Fruit stickers Fruit stickers It’s odd that we put plastic fruit stickers on fruits - and vegetables, for that matter. When the peels are composted, the stickers are not. Or they are just thrown away when the fruit is eaten. If you make the fruit stickers out of compostable Biodolomer® biomaterial they will decompose along with the peels. And if they are thrown away, they will biodegrade and disappear. Leaving no microplastics. Contact us

Oceanic microplastics remain one of the main environmental challenges ahead. The preliminary results reported by this year’s edition of The Ocean Race added further food for thought, as microplastics were found even in the remote waters of the southern Atlantic Ocean – a route seldom traveled. GAIA startpage WORRYING LEVELS OF OCEANIC MICROPLASTICS FOUND DURING THE OCEAN RACE WORRYING LEVELS OF OCEANIC MICROPLASTICS FOUND DURING THE OCEAN RACE Oceanic microplastics remain one of the main environmental challenges ahead.

Photo: Pixabay Oceanic microplastics remain one of the main environmental challenges ahead. The preliminary results reported by this year’s edition of The Ocean Race added further food for thought, as microplastics – in levels up to 1884 particles per cubic meter sea water – were reported in each of the 40 samples analyzed so far. Even during the challenging third leg through the remote waters of the southern Atlantic Ocean – a route seldom traveled – microplastic levels of up to 1492 particles per cubic meter were reported. For the first time, this year’s edition of The Ocean Race also examined the chemical structure of the plastic particles collected to better understand the causes and origins of oceanic microplastics. The initial analysis point towards polyethylene (PE) as the main contributor; meaning fishing nets, flexible packaging, plastic bags, and containers, to name some of the most common. The Ocean Race, apart from being a round-the-world sailing race (formerly known as Volvo Ocean Race), also runs a sustainability program that, among other topics, monitors the levels of microplastics in the ocean. Racing through some of the most inhospitable waters in the world, participants in The Ocean Race are uniquely well-positioned to monitor the microplastic levels in the oceans. Given the worrying results put forward by The Ocean Race, GAIA is further strengthened in its belief that Biodolomer® will solve many of these problems, as it can replace up to 80% of the world’s volume plastics while being both biodegradable and compostable. It also has a density higher than seawater, meaning that it will sink to the bottom of the ocean, where the bacteria found in the bottom sediments will completely biodegrade it. For those interested in learning more about The Ocean Race and their work with microplastics, you can find it here Gaia BioMaterials is a Swedish company that develops and produces biodegradable biomaterials. With our patented material, Biodolomer®, we are revolutionizing the plastics industry and contributing to a cleaner and healthier planet. Biodolomer® is inspired by a half-a-billion-year-old packaging design from Mother Earth – the egg. Read more . Copyright © 2023 Gaia Biomaterials AB, All rights reserved.
