VASUジャパン Company Profile

VASU Japan has recently started mass production of biodegradable plastics that can impart biodegradability to non-woven fabrics used for various applications, offering excellent cost performance. The bioplastics suitable for this biodegradable non-woven fabric enable the introduction of biodegradable plastics for a variety of uses. While biodegradable non-woven fabrics are already available in the market, many products primarily use PLA (polylactic acid) as the main raw material, making cost a barrier to adoption. The VS-90-2-A10 was developed with the aim of lowering this barrier. In Japan, the share of bioplastics is overwhelmingly dominated by biomass plastics, but as the VASU Group, which specializes in the development and manufacturing of biodegradable plastics, we hope to broaden our applications without limitations. Additionally, the VS-90-2-A10 is currently under patent application in China. The VS-90-2-A10 is ideally suited for the spunbond method, which is a highly efficient manufacturing process that enables the continuous production of non-woven fabrics from thermoplastic resins. By melting the raw resin and continuously spinning the fibers into sheets, it is possible to achieve both high productivity and excellent product performance.

The patent obtained this time relates to the manufacturing technology of biomass plastics, enabling the creation of environmentally friendly biomass plastics that maintain the physical properties of petroleum-derived plastics as much as possible, through our unique compound technology. In recent years, we often hear news about the deterioration of the global environment, and the introduction of eco-friendly materials in modern manufacturing has become an unavoidable trend. Among these, biomass plastics are key materials for building a sustainable future. Bioplastics can be utilized in a wide range of fields, including home appliances, parts, packaging, cutlery, amenities, and construction materials. Their performance is particularly demonstrated in products that require excellent moldability, and since they contain renewable resources, the risk of depletion is low, and a stable supply of raw materials is expected. This reduces supply risks and enables business operations from a long-term perspective. Please feel free to contact us for detailed specifications or to request samples.

Towards a sustainable future! Biomass plastic for injection molding, ideal for a wide range of applications such as cutlery and amenities. Versatile applications and excellent processability This biomass plastic is based on PP (polypropylene) with 51% calcium carbonate, making it suitable for a wide range of applications including cutlery, amenity items, various daily necessities, and industrial parts. It also complies with the Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare's standard No. 370. Environmental consideration and economic benefits This product supports the "reduction of plastic" initiative and promotes the reduction of plastic usage. Additionally, by obtaining the biomass mark, it demonstrates a company's contribution to sustainable development goals (SDGs) and enhances consumer trust. VASU Japan provides comprehensive support for obtaining the mark. Creating new value through upcycling The oyster shells used in this product were previously treated as industrial waste, but by converting them into high-value materials, it contributes to a circular economy. Easy to implement with a small start We support the provision of small sample quantities and prototype molding tailored to customer needs, promoting implementation with a small start.
