Zummit Plastics’s Film Main Component in Growth Plans

Zummit Plastics, a relatively new stretch film maker in Arizona is looking to capitalize on growing environmental awareness regarding the use of plastics.

Zummitt

Zummit began operations in the summer of 2018 in an 85,000 sq-ft facility with an emphasis on promoting a PE stretch film the company claims is biodegradable.

With two cast film lines already installed—and room for two more in the future—Zummit Plastics Inc. of Phoenix sees the current climate as a major business opportunity.

The company's Bio-Zummit line of both hand wrap and machine film account for about 40% of sales currently, said Adrian Peredo, vice president of sales at Zummit. Conventional stretch film accounts for the remaining 60%. But Zummit expects biodegradable film will eventually take over full production.

Zummit claims its film will biodegrade under the right conditions in three to five years in a landfill setting. And that's important as companies look for different packaging options, he said.
