Freeze-tolerant resin

Cereplast has extended the range of applications for biodegradable, compostable plastic with the introduction of the first-ever freeze-tolerant resin, CP-INJ-13.

The newest addition to the company’s Compostables™ resin family retains structural rigidity in freezing temperatures, making it suitable for frozen food applications such as ice cream containers, as well as applications requiring resistance to low temperature and/or high flexibility. The new PLA-based resin exhibits improved flexibility compared to other PLA-based products, allowing it to withstand sub-zero environments. Resin provides structural integrity in temperatures as low as -35ºF. In addition, tensile elongation is approximately 10 times greater.
