A well-known Japanese foam material manufacturer has developed a new biodegradable foam product

Recently, Sekisuikasei, a well-known foam material manufacturer, developed a biodegradable foam “RETONA FOAM
BIO” is a general term for foaming products made of biodegradable plastics such as polylactic acid (PLA) and polybutylene succinate (PBS), which can be decomposed into water and carbon dioxide gas by microorganisms in composting. In addition, the new product has excellent softness and fit, and can meet the three-dimensional modeling requirements such as surface attachment.

In addition, compared with the existing foam resin, the new foam has higher processability and design. Sekisui Chemical Industry is also actively developing the application of the new foam with HighChem. In the future, it will be packaged in electronic parts Aiming at a wide range of fields such as materials and food packaging materials, we promote the development of various applications.

The new foam is BIO, a biodegradable plastic and bio-based plastic brand under Sekisui Chemical Industry Co., Ltd.
One of Cellular’s products will continue to expand the lineup of environmentally friendly products in the future, and plans to achieve the goal of replacing more than 50% of the raw materials of all products with recycled materials, biodegradable plastics, and bio-based plastics by 2030.
