BioLogiQ, Inc., Idaho Falls, Idaho, launched new grades of its plant-based plastic, NuPlastiQ BioPolymers.
Using a proprietary process, BioLogiQ produces NuPlastiQ GP BioPolymers (GP) from natural, renewable resources. GP resins contain 100% USDA-certified, bio-based content, and are ASTM D6400 and EN 13432 certified for compostability. When combined with traditional plastics to produce the new XP, XD and BC grades, the resulting resins are stronger and more durable; reduce fossil fuel-based plastic usage and greenhouse gas generation; and maintain the recyclability, compostability or biodegradability of HDPE, LLDPE, LDPE, PP, TPE EVOH, PLA and PHA polymers.
