Bioworks List of Products and Services

It is recognized as carbon neutral, meaning that burning it does not increase CO2 in the atmosphere. Additionally, it is a biodegradable material that can decompose into water and carbon dioxide in certain environments after use. Bioworks has successfully developed "PlaX" by adding a uniquely developed plant-based additive to polylactic acid to improve its weaknesses. PlaX Fiber, made from PlaX, is a plant-based material that combines the quality of textile products with the functionality and environmental benefits of polylactic acid. 【Features】 - Weakly acidic, similar to human skin, making it gentle on the skin - High absorbency, reducing drying time - Towels in a convenient size - Ideal size for drying hair

Many plastics use petroleum as a raw material and emit a large amount of carbon dioxide when incinerated. However, the raw material for Bio Face, polylactic acid, is plant-based. Not only does it use very little petroleum as a raw material, but it also reduces carbon dioxide emissions during incineration. Additionally, it has the property of being biodegradable under certain environmental conditions (in an aerobic composting environment at 58°C). Unlike conventional biomass plastics, it does not decompose significantly during use, allowing for long-term use. 【Features】 - It is mildly acidic, like human skin, making it gentle on the skin. - Antibacterial properties*1 remain intact even after 50 washes*2. - 3D processing eliminates seams, reducing skin irritation.

"PlaX" is a bioplastic developed by adding a plant-derived modifier, uniquely developed by our company, to polylactic acid, which has two characteristics: biodegradability and CO2 emission reduction. Its performance is equal to or exceeds that of petroleum-based plastics. It is also a high-performance material in terms of production cost, heat resistance, strength, and flexibility. 【Features】 ■ Plant-derived and biodegradable bioplastic ■ Achieves transparency and heat resistance ■ Improved flexibility and impact resistance ■ Can be molded with existing equipment *For more details, please download the PDF or feel free to contact us.
