Cover film for farming risks polluting the soil as they are not always recycled. When made with compostable Biodolomer biomaterial, waste and CO2 emissions are drastically reduced without compromising functionality. They will also biodegrade and disappear without leaving any microplastics in nature. GAIA startpage Cover film Cover film Cover film is used in very large quantities by farmers all over the world. Even if the goal is to recycle it, a lot will find its way into nature. Blown away, or just dumped at landfills, By using cover film made of compostable Biodolomer® biomaterial waste and CO2 emissions are drastically reduced. While still achieving precisely the same function. And any film that accidentally finds itself in nature will biodegrade and disappear. Leaving no microplastics. Contact us

Fishing nets made from compostable Biodolomer biomaterial instead of nylon will drastically reduce the problems with ghost nets and CO2 emissions. Biodolomer biomaterials have a density higher than water and will sink to the bottom, where they will biodegrade without leaving any microplastics. GAIA startpage Fishing nets Fishing nets Nylon fishing nets that get lost at sea are a big problem for maritime life. Ghost nets float around the oceans and become traps for mammals and fish killing hundreds of millions every year. Making nets out of compostable Biodolomer® biomaterial will drastically reduce this problem as they have a density higher than water and thus sink to the bottom of the ocean, where they will biodegrade and disappear. Leaving no microplastics and reducing CO2 emissions. An easy solution to a very big problem.

Replacing plastics with compostable Biodolomer biomaterial in butter packaging drastically decreases waste and CO2 emissions without compromising quality or functionality. If disposed of in nature by accident, it biodegrades without leaving any microplastics. GAIA startpage Butter packaging/wrapping film Butter packaging/wrapping film Wrapping food in materials that are not friendly to nature is not really a good thing. That is why most food companies look for alternatives to plastic. For example, for butter packaging. One such alternative is compostable Biodolomer® biomaterial that drastically reduces waste and CO2 emissions. While it still has the same function as the plastic alternative. And if it accidentally finds itself in nature, it will soon biodegrade and just disappear, leaving no microplastics. Contact us

Compostable Biodolomer biomaterial can replace plastics for bottle and jar applications. The production equipment and product quality will remain the same, but waste, energy use, and CO2 emissions will decrease drastically, and the bottles and jars will biodegrade without leaving any microplastics. GAIA startpage Bottles and jars Bottles and jars Bottles and jars for many applications can be made out of compostable Biodolomer® biomaterial instead of plastic. The function and production method are the same, but waste, energy use, and CO2 emissions are drastically reduced. And the real benefit is that instead of a plastic product that can add to garbage mountains, and ocean pollution, you get a product that will biodegrade. Leaving no microplastics. Contact us

Growing bananas in plastic bags? Switch to compostable Biodolomer bags instead. GAIA startpage Banana tree bags Growing bananas in plastic bags? Switch to compostable Biodolomer bags instead. Way better for cutting down waste and CO2 emissions. And that's only one of several ways that Biodolomer can kick plastic out of agriculture! Read more here Published date 20 nov. 2023 Category News

Caps and capsules for various bottles and cartons can be made from compostable Biodolomer biomaterials instead of plastics. They maintain the same functionality but drastically reduce waste and CO2 emissions. They also biodegrade without leaving any microplastics if accidentally left in nature. GAIA startpage Caps and capsules Caps and capsules Even PET or glass bottles or milk cartons often have plastic caps and capsules that result in waste and that use a lot of resources. By making them out of compostable Biodolomer® biomaterial you reduce both waste and CO2 emissions drastically. While they still have exactly the same function. And if they accidentally find themselves in nature, they will soon biodegrade, leaving no microplastics. Contact us

Golf tees made from compostable Biodolomer instead of plastics will drastically reduce waste and CO2 emissions. They work just as well and, if forgotten or left at the course, will biodegrade and disappear without leaving any microplastics. GAIA startpage Golf tees Golf tees This is where we all started. Golf tees that are not picked up will cause damage to mowers and pollute the course. Making golf tees out of compostable Biodolomer® biomaterial drastically reduces waste and CO2 emissions. While still working just as good as plastic ones. And if they are forgotten or left at the course they will decompose and disappear. Contact us

Infill for artificial turf made from compostable Biodolomer biomaterial removes the problem with microplastics. At the same time, it drastically reduces waste and CO2 emissions while still working just as well. GAIA startpage Infill for artificial turf Infill for artificial turf Artificial turf has revolutionized sports and made it possible to practice and compete all year round all over the world. But the environmental impact has led to the concept being more and more questioned. One aspect is the infill. The granules that are the “soil” under the “grass”. These granules wear out and need to be replaced and as they are worn out, microplastics are released into the underlying ground. Making the granules out of compostable Biodolomer® biomaterial removes this problem completely. At the same time it drastically reduces waste and CO2 emissions. While still working just as good.

Feminine hygiene products cause considerable pollution problems when disposed of incorrectly. Making them from compostable Biodolomer biomaterial instead of plastics reduces waste and CO2 emissions without compromising functionality. They also biodegrade without leaving any microplastics. GAIA startpage Feminine hygiene Feminine hygiene Feminine hygiene products are a big source of pollution. They create a lot of waste and use a lot of resources. And if they find themselves in the wrong place, they will stay in nature for a very long time. Making these products out of compostable Biodolomer® biomaterial drastically reduces waste and CO2 emissions. While still achieving precisely the same function. And if they accidentally find themselves in nature they will biodegrade and disappear. Leaving no microplastics. Contact us

Swedish Bioplastics company Gaia Biomaterials has completed the development of a new and revolutionary compostable drinking straw material. The new material is stable, rigid, and heat resistant and allows for the manufacture of sustainable straws for all types of drinks. GAIA startpage Compostable drinking straws that don’t taste of paper Swedish Bioplastics company Gaia Biomaterials has completed the development of a new and revolutionary compostable drinking straw material. The new material is stable, rigid, and heat resistant and allows for the manufacture of sustainable straws for all types of drinks. The new material is a grade of the company's limestone based Biodolomer material. Biodolomer does not leave any microplastics and is certified compostable by BPI in the USA as well as European certification bodies. The new grade has been developed with hot drinks, such as Irish Coffee and hot chocolate, in mind. It can handle temperatures over 80ºC without any substantial loss in rigidity and stability. Several tests have been conducted with drinking straw manufacturers in Europe and the USA, and the results were so promising that the first full-scale production runs will take place in late May. The material works well in the machines, and the properties are according to expectations. “Drinking straws have been an issue for many”, says Gaia Biomaterials CEO Peter Stenström. “According to many consumers, the degradable alternatives have simply not been good enough.” “But soon you’ll be able to use straws again. With a clean conscience and without a distinct aftertaste of paper…” Published date 15 juli 2024 Category Press release
