Cargill introduces bioplastics from NatureWorks in Brazil
20-Jul-09
Cargill is to introduce its Ingeo™ bioplastics from NatureWorks to Brazil. Ingeo biopolymers are derived from sugar. The production process for Ingeo products generates 60% less green house gas and requires 50% less fossil fuel compared to production of Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET). In addition to these front end benefits, Ingeo products fit all existing disposal systems and offer entirely new options for composting and feedstock recovery. The biodegradable nature of Ingeo enables it to degrade in only three to four months in industrial composting conditions (80% humidity and a constant temperature of 60°C).
