PLA Eco-Friendly Tableware

Plastic waste cannot be decomposed, and it has impact on our ecological environment. To avoid the deterioration of our ecological environment, Tairung Development has developed and produced eco-friendly plastic products (PLA biodegradable plastics) to make efforts in protecting the environment of the Earth.

PLA is Poly Lactic Acid. PLA plastics are made from carbohydrate (such as corn and yam starch) extracted from plants. After fermentation, lactic acid is polymerized to become 100% biodegradable material, and it has the same appearance, feel and convenience of traditional plastics.

The greatest difference between PLA plastics and traditional plastics is that PLA plastics which are eco-friendly can be decomposed by microorganism in degradable environment and become carbon dioxide and water required by plants. PLA plastics have obtained the food grade permit by Department of Health and acquired international certification from FDA (Food and Drug Administration) of the United States. The four features of the plastics are “natural,” “nontoxic,” “eco-friendly” and “sustainable,” which correspond to the life cycle philosophy of resources, and the plastics are different from traditional indecomposable plastics made from petroleum.

PLA tableware were originally used for food with room temperatures. After continuous improvement and manufacture, our corporation has researched and developed crystallization technique to increase the heat tolerance of PLA, and its heat tolerance can be greatly elevated to over 100°C.



The products have passed inspection of SGS:

Passed inspection free of eight heavy metals No.CY/2011/C1606 Material: PLA biodegradable material and food grade colors
Usage: the same as other tableware
Passed high temperature test of 120°C N0.HLD 0377/2011
Passed low temperature test of -20°C No.HLD 0377/2011
Passed free-fall test No.HLD0377/2011
Passed plasticizer-free test No.CY/2011/C1607
