ENSO - Model RENEW RTP -Renewable, Biodegradable, Compostable and Economical Thermoplastic Resin
ENSO RENEW RTP can replace up to 100% of your products petroleum based plastic, with a natural, biodegradable, healthy and economical alternative. ENSO RENEW RTP is a renewable thermoplastic used as polymer replacements and/or fillers developed with performance, biodegradability and economic value in mind. RENEW RTP is not made from petroleum based materials, but instead is created from the processing waste of agricultural products such as potatoes.
ENSO RENEW RTP can replace petroleum based polymers in many applications and has the versatility to also be combined with standard plastics when strict performance parameters are required. ENSO RENEW is rapidly biodegradable in compost, marine and other waste environments and offers a simple and effective solution to an enormous environmental challenge. In fact, film made with ENSO RENEW has shown to biodegrade in 10 days within composting environments!
ENSO RENEW RTP is a versatile polymer that can replace up to 100% of traditional petroleum based polymers. Depending on your product application, there are two methods of using ENSO RENEW RTP:
Use at 100%: ENSO RENEW can be used at 100% for specific applications utilizing shorter shelf life requirements and where humidity and liquid contact is not of concern. RENEW RTP is an ideal environmental value when used as a stand-alone polymer.
