What is PLA?

01

What is PLA?

 

Polylactic acid or polylactide (PLA) is a thermoplastic aliphatic polyester derived from renewable resources, such as corn starch (in the United States), tapioca roots, chips or starch (mostly in Asia), or sugarcane

PLA was the second most important bioplastic of the world in regard to consumption volume.

02

What is biodegradable materials?

 

Biodegradable materials, mainly natural biobased materials, which are fermented or executed by chemical processes or by polymerization of a monomer and petrochemical products, are biodegradable polyester-based polymer. They are generally made with renewable natural resources, such as: microbial, plant, animal polymers. With sufficient humidity, temperature, presence of oxygen and bacteria they will be consumed by microorganisms and return to compounds found in nature and decomposed into water and carbon dioxide.

03

Why is our mug recycles ?
Here is how our mug recycles.

→ the resin used in our products is refined from corn.

→ the PLA products are produced.

→ the PLA products are recycled and throw into the soil.

→ organic soil is generated and circulated in the nature.

 

PLA是什麼?

01

什麼是PLA?

 

PLA 是Poly lactic Acid(聚乳酸)的縮寫

學名為Polylactied(聚丙交脂)PLA是由天然植物中萃取的糖經萃取、發酵而成的100%生物可分解材料。

02

什麼是生物可分解材料?

 

生物可分解材料(biodegradable materials),主要以天然資材(biobase)為原料,經發酵、化學合成或以石化產品的單體聚合反應而製造之生物分解性聚脂類高分子,一般以不斷重複取得的天然資源(renewable),如:微生物、植物、動物、所製成的聚合物,在有足夠的濕度、溫度、氧氣與適當的微生物存在的自然掩埋場或堆肥環境中即會被分解成水和二氧化碳。

03

為什麼我們的杯子可以再循環 ?
以下是我們杯子的循環過程

→ 我們的產品中使用的樹脂是由玉米提煉

→ PLA 產品的生產

→ PLA 產品回收並投入至土壤中

有機土壤產生並回歸自然
