Swedish company GAIA Biomaterials' limestone-based bioplastic material Biodolomer has received more compostability certifications from BPI in the USA. The new certifications cover Biodolomer T and enable the production of compostable products that require rigid materials, such as drinking mugs and food trays. GAIA startpage More BPI Certifications for Gaia Biomaterials Allow for New Compostable Products More BPI Certifications for Gaia Biomaterials Allow for New Compostable Products Swedish company GAIA Biomaterials' limestone-based bioplastic material Biodolomer has received more compostability certifications from BPI in the USA. The new certifications cover Biodolomer T and enable the production of compostable products that require rigid materials, such as drinking mugs and food trays. Gaia Biomaterials recently received its first BPI compostability certificate for the thinner grades of Biodolomer suitable for film applications. The new certificates are given to Biodolomer T for Extrusion, Granulates, Sheet Resin, and Thermoforming Resin with a maximum thickness of 1000 microns. Biodolomer T is suitable for products that require a rigid material, such as beer and coffee cups, and food trays. “This means that we can now offer a USA-certified compostable material for a number of new applications that require a thicker and more rigid material”, says Gaia Biomaterials CEO Peter Stenström. BPI (Biodegradable Products Institute) is North America's leading authority on compostable products and packaging. They ensure that all claims of compostability are supported by scientific evidence as requested by the FTC. Biodolomer T already has a European certification from the German certification bureau DIN Certco. Like other Biodolomer materials, it is based on limestone and does not result in any microplastics. It also reduces CO2 emissions by up to 80% when incinerated. Published date 20 maj 2024 Category Press release

Making medical packaging and trays in compostable Biodolomer biomaterial instead of plastics can drastically reduce waste and CO2 emissions without compromising function. Once used, the packaging and trays can be composted. GAIA startpage Medical packaging and trays Medical packaging and trays Disposable medical packaging is used in large volumes in the healthcare sector. From sterilized instruments in pouches to trays for the distribution of medication, syringes, etc. All this uses natural resources and results in large amounts of waste. By using compostable Biodolomer® biomaterial instead of plastic for production you reduce waste, resource usage, and CO2 emissions. While still achieving exactly the same function. And you get waste that can be put in the compost! Contact us

Mulch film for farming risks polluting the soil as it is not always collected afterward. Using 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 Mulch film Mulch film Mulch 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 mulch 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 decompose and disappear. Leaving no microplastics. Contact us

Combs made from compostable Biodolomer biomaterials instead of plastics drastically reduce waste and CO2 emissions without compromising function. If a comb accidentally finds itself in nature, it will biodegrade and disappear without leaving any microplastics. GAIA startpage Combs Combs Traditionally, plastic is used to produce many things, Combs, for example. By making combs out of compostable Biodolomer® biomaterial, you drastically reduce waste and CO2 emissions. While still achieving precisely the same function. And, a comb that accidentally finds itself in nature will biodegrade and disappear by itself. Leaving no microplastics. Contact us

Washing dishes with plastic granules results in large amounts of microplastic waste. Dishwasher granules made with compostable Biodolomer® biomaterial biodegrade without leaving any microplastics or compromising function. They also drastically reduce waste and CO2 emissions. GAIA startpage Dishwasher granules Dishwasher granules Washing dishes with plastic granules is a great concept. If it wasn't for the fact that large amounts of microplastics are being flushed out in the sewers. By making dishwasher granules out of compostable Biodolomer® biomaterial, you remove the microplastics altogether and drastically reduce waste and CO2 emissions. While still achieving precisely the same function. 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.
