BIOTEN Packaging Pro PHA Water-Based Barrier Emulsion Is Now Available

Advancing laboratory results into real commercial applications through a complete evidence chain.

What We Can Provide

  1. PHA water-based barrier emulsion: the source article describes the material as meeting requirements related to BPI home and commercial compostability certification.
  2. Water-based coated papers: through coating partners, projects can cover food-grade paperboard, tissue, kraft paper, bamboo-pulp paper, and other paper systems.
  3. Paper packaging products: through converting partners, projects can cover paper cups, bowls, cartons, bags, burger wrap, and molded-fiber products.
  4. Certification and testing support: assistance may be provided for BPI, DIN CERTCO, ABA, Seedling, and related certification or testing work.

Take the long road, avoid zero-sum competition, and sustain progress through innovation.

Moving from laboratory validation to real commerce requires more than determining whether a laboratory sample meets BPI-related requirements. BIOTEN also focuses on whether coated paper can be supplied consistently and whether batch-produced articles can maintain performance and certification consistency.

Our goal is to work with industry partners to bring to market an early group of paper packaging products that use BIOTEN Pro PHA materials and obtain applicable BPI home and commercial compostability certifications.
