CompostaBlock
CompostaBlock has been specially developed to serve as a feedstock for shape molding
to replace EPS (Polystyrene)
Material Composition
CompostaBlock is
-
expanded Poly-Lactic Acid (PLA) polymer ,which is derived from renewable sources such as starch or sugar.
-
100% biocompostable
-
multi-impact resistant
-
thermally efficient
-
carbon Neutral
CompostaBlock Original Formula is a
-
bead and resin compression molded high density foam product
-
material that can be designed to protect any product
CompostaBlock meets standards for industrial composting and recycling
Material Life Cycle
1. Environmental Footprint
(Life Cycle Assessment)
* Cradle to Cradle certified - silver award
+ EPEA material health award
+ EPEA 100% Carbon Neutral Award
Greenhouse Gas Emissions profile
CompostaBlock is made from annually renewing biomass feedstock such as corn starch and sugarcane.
Fossil Resource EPS is made from
fossil mass feedstock that takes 1 million + years to renew.
CompostaBlock is a balanced Green House Gas Emission
production process and certified Carbon Neutral material. It is made from annually renewing plant feedstock.

Cushioning
Dynamic shock cushioning characteristics of packaging materials mentioned in ASTM norm1596. Sample 60x 60 x2.5 height 76cm, 10kg drop, first drop 25G.
Composta Block demonstrates equivalent levels of shock cushioning to EPS equivalent packaging
-
Energy Consumption proME CompostaBlock has an energy footprint of between 5096 and 75% of its equivalent fossil fuel EPS foam plastics
-
Waste footprint CompostaBlock and other Composta materials have a significant smaller impact on the environment during end of life waste disposal and can be clearly seen in our technical brochure .
