The Bag Is the Part Your Customer Throws Away
Retail buyers now ask what happens to the bag after the cup. PLA corn fibre and biodegradable transparent film answer that question, but they are not a drop-in swap for nylon. The seal behaves differently and the machine has to be set up for it.
Stage By Stage
Pick the Material
Problem PLA, non-woven fabric, PET and nylon each look and seal differently, and only some of them carry a compostability claim.
How we solve it We stock all of them and can send finished sample bags in each so you can compare before choosing.
Match the Machine
Problem Not every sealing method suits every film.
How we solve it Our ultrasonic sealing machines close the bag without heat or adhesive, which is what makes fine biodegradable film practical at production speed.
Set the Seal
Problem A seal setting tuned for nylon will not give the same result on PLA.
How we solve it Settings for your chosen film are found during run off and recorded, so your operator does not have to rediscover them.
Secure Supply
Problem A biodegradable claim on the pack is only as reliable as the film supply behind it.
How we solve it We supply the film as an ongoing line item alongside the machine, in the same roll widths the machine is set for.

Which biodegradable materials do you supply?
PLA corn fibre film and 100% biodegradable transparent material, alongside non-woven fabric, PET and nylon mesh.
Does biodegradable film run slower?
Speed depends on the machine, the bag size and the fill weight rather than the film alone. We record the actual rate during run off with your chosen material.
Can I switch between nylon and PLA on the same machine?
Yes, within the roll widths the machine is set for. The seal settings change, so we record a setting for each film you plan to run.
Do you supply the film after the machine is installed?
Yes. Film, thread and tag material are a standing part of our range and ship in the roll widths your machine uses.
