Looking for a 100% compostable FOOD PACKAGING solution?
Why Choose US?
We can substitute your current multi material packaging to a mono material compostable packaging using one of our ESR Resins. Environmentally and socially responsible food packaging is a key need. This is particularly true for single-use throw-away packaging material. We have price-performance competitive biomaterials solutions to meet this need.

Technology Overview
Working with our partner, University of Guelph, commercialization of compostable bio-composite resin technology is a first of its kind in the world where a significant amount of reinforcement is provided by fillers. These are typically so-called ‘waste streams’ of Agriculture and the Agriculture processing industry.
Excellent barrier is achieved with an innovative choice of compostable fillers. Most importantly, no co-injection molding is needed – a single step process is all that it takes to achieve the desired barrier properties for enhanced shelf life. The reinforcement fillers used are universally available all over the world. Over 15 different biomass and other fillers have been characterized and used by us and successfully compatibilized. That is the key to being able to globally scale our offerings of bio-composite resins.
Successful Case:
Products moulded from our bio-composite resins include support rings for single serve coffee pods using the ‘mesh’ format, other single use packaging materials, greenhouse accessories, etc. - all that are were earlier thrown into landfill and are now compostable.
All McCafe single serve coffee pods in Canada, sold across all McDonalds stores, and other mass merchandisers like Walmart.ca, Longos, etc. use our innovative compostable bio-composite resin.
Molded products using our resin are on store shelves all over North America. See Discovery Channel episode "Made By Destruction" here.
