Ningbo Homelink Eco-iTech and Danimer Scientific Announce Commercial Launch of Home Compostable Extrusion Coating Biopolymer Based on PHA
Danimer Scientific (NYSE: DNMR) and Ningbo Homelink Eco-iTech have commercially launched home compostable extrusion coating biopolymers for paper cups, using Danimer's signature polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA), Nodax®. These PHA-lined cups offer a sustainable alternative to traditional paper cups, being both home and industrially compostable, as well as fully repulpable.
The cups have been certified by TÜV as home compostable, by BPI as commercially compostable, and have passed the first phase of Western Michigan University's repulpability/recyclability test. They are now proceeding with full certification for recyclability in paper systems.
Homelink, a leading manufacturer of disposable tableware, will produce these cups in their new extrusion facility in Thailand. This partnership aims to provide consumers with an environmentally friendly option that can be disposed of in home compost bins or backyard compost piles, as well as through established commercial composting programs.
