Environmentalism goes first and be a fashion bubble tea drinker!

Nowadays, bubble tea has been endowed with a lot of meaning by the public. It is the "source of strength" for young people who are diligent in getting rich, and it is also a sweet "fortune" in daily life. Meanwhile, the consumption of disposable plastic products is growing rapidly.

In 2021, in order to curb white plastic pollution, the most stringent "plastic restriction order" will be launched. From straws, stirring sticks, and spoons to packaging bags will be gradually replaced by biodegradable plastic products.

eSUN bubble tea series biodegradable products:

1.  Polylactic acid-coated paper cup

Most of the disposable paper cups widely used in the market are paper-plastic cups. The paper cups have a single-sided coating and a double-sided coating. The single coating is the inner layer of the outer paper, and the double coating is the inner layer of the outer film. Most of the coatings used to make paper cups are polyethylene (PE) plastic coatings, which have high heat resistance at a temperature of 80°C, which can meet the needs of most application scenarios, but it does not have natural degradation characteristics, resulting in these Non-toxic paper cups neither break down in landfills nor can they be recycled.

eSUN polylactic acid-coated paper cups are more environmentally friendly as a whole, and can also meet user needs in terms of performance

① Environmental protection materials

Polylactic acid (PLA) coated paper replaces polyethylene (PE) coated paper. Polylactic acid is a biodegradable material made by fermenting crops such as corn. The production process of polylactic acid is non-polluting, biodegradable, and can be recycled in nature. It is an ideal green polymer material. It is in line with the global and national environmental protection policies of plastic restriction and ban.

②Material safety

The safety performance of polylactic acid is very good. Polyethylene (PE) coated paper may be oxidized to carbonyl compounds during the process of hot melting or applying to cup paper, and the cup may emit an odor when hot water is poured into it. Polylactic acid-coated paper has no peculiar smell, and also has certain antibacterial and anti-ultraviolet properties.

③ Material resistant to high and low temperature

Polylactic acid (PLA) coated paper has good high and low-temperature resistance, and it won’t leak or deform when made into cold or hot liquid containers. It has good strength and heat sealability and meets the requirements for the use of coated paper cups.

④ Uniform coating layer: The polylactic acid coating layer is even, smooth and smooth, and has a good hand feeling. It has excellent qualities such as strong adhesion and gloss.

⑤Water and oil resistance: Polylactic acid-coated paper has the feature of water and oil resistance compared to traditional polyethylene (PE) coated paper.

2.Biodegradable injection cup (lid)

 

Although bubble tea cups and cup lids are used together, they are actually made of different production materials and production processes. The biodegradable injection plastic used as raw material for eSUN thin-walled injection cup (lid) production has the following features:

1. Non-petroleum-based biological materials, low-carbon and environmentally friendly, renewable resources, saving petroleum resources;

2. Good mechanical properties, high rigidity, impact resistance;

3. Good processing performance, wide process range, easy to form, continuous nozzle, fast cooling and setting, easy to demould;

4. The surface gloss of the product is good;

5. The product has a low shrinkage rate and good dimensional stability;

6. Resistant to various solvents, easy to color and print.

Compared with traditional plastic cup lids, eSUN thin-walled injection cups (lids) not only have a better surface gloss, but also can achieve biodegradation, meeting the current market demand for environmental protection and plastic bans.

 

3. Biodegradable plastic straws

Since the plastic restriction, from traditional plastic straws to paper straws, from paper straws to degradable PLA straws, users have made the most suitable choice based on actual experience.

Features of eSUN biodegradable straws:

①From plant starch such as corn, 100% bioplastic;

② Comply with European EN13432 and American ASTM D6400 standards;

③Materials are safe and healthy, can be directly in contact with food, and can be used for hot and cold drinks;

④The material is environmentally friendly, and the compost of polylactic acid straws is 100% biodegradable after use, without environmental pollution.

*Customized production service of straws can be provided according to user needs.

4. Biodegradable plastic spoon (fork) and stirring rod

 

The biodegradable plastic spoon produced by eSUN adopts an injection molding process. Based on the advantages and characteristics of its production raw material - polylactic acid (PLA), it is not only biodegradable, meets the current market demand for environmental protection and plastic ban, but also meets the requirements of food contact, and the surface of the product has good gloss. It can replace traditional disposable plastic spoons.

5.Biodegradable plastic bags

 

The fully biodegradable blown film material independently produced by eSUN can be made into various films and plastic bags with different properties through the blown film process, which can be used in various types of packaging, such as flat bags, vest bags, etc., and can also be made into Films of different thickness and transparency can be used in different scenarios.

eSUN can customize the transparency and hardness of various styles of plastic bags for bubble tea according to customer requirements. In addition to being biodegradable, the plastic bags have the characteristics of softness, easy storage, good breathability and good printing performance.

As time progresses, the control of plastic pollution will continue to deepen and expand. "Plastic ban and restriction" is unstoppable, and we also have green solutions to match it. Biodegradable plastic products are both convenient and environmentally friendly. They can not only meet the requirements of the ban on plastic restrictions but also provide consumers with a healthy and high-quality experience. They are the best choice for consumers who pursue fashion and support green life.

eSUN can provide various biodegradable raw materials and products, welcome to consult and negotiate!
