This high expansion foaming also allows for a reduction in raw materials. As global concern over plastic waste issues grows, this new environmentally friendly product can be applied in various fields such as fishing and agricultural tools, packaging materials, medical products, and decorative/display items. 【Features】 ■ 100% plant-based ■ 100% biodegradable ■ Carbon neutral ■ Low environmental impact foaming agents used *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

• Composite Materials

This is a block board made of biodegradable foam beads that are non-petroleum-based, carbon-neutral, and have low environmental impact. Ideal for packaging materials, cushioning, and various three-dimensional shapes!

Beads made from plant-derived, biodegradable resin PLA (polylactic acid) are foamed using a unique extrusion foaming technology developed by Plasteco, which utilizes low environmental impact inert gases (CO2, N2) and are then steam-formed into block and board shapes. They can be processed into your desired shape through cutting and other methods! They can be used as an alternative to traditional expanded polystyrene for packaging materials and cushioning, as well as for three-dimensional objects and display items. High expansion foaming with a safe and inexpensive foaming agent (inert gas) also allows for a reduction in raw materials! PLA resin, which has a high raw material cost, can be foamed and molded at a low cost.

• Drying Equipment

Please consult with us. We overturn the conventional wisdom of plastic! Environmentally friendly, high value-added foaming technology.

The "Supercritical Inert Gas Foaming Technology" is a high-value-added micro-foaming technology that considers both people and the environment. It does not have the explosiveness or flammability of hydrocarbon-based physical foaming agents, so there is no need to make the equipment explosion-proof. It is also free from the toxicity of chemical foaming agents and has no residual effects, making it excellent for recycling. Our company provides comprehensive support from raw materials to the entire molding equipment and the development of the molding process. Additionally, our foaming molding machines come standard with extrusion molding and RIM molding. If you are considering foaming molding, please feel free to contact us. 【Features】 ■ The foaming agent is non-explosive and non-flammable, eliminating the need for explosion-proof equipment. ■ It has a low global warming potential, taking the global environment into consideration. ■ It is non-toxic and has no residual effects, making it excellent for recycling. ■ It is capable of forming fine bubbles of several micrometers. ■ It can also be applied to foaming of crystalline resins, which were difficult to foam at high ratios with conventional methods. *For more details, please refer to the PDF materials or feel free to contact us.

• Gas recovery/treatment equipment

Renewed with a new model! This is a gas supply device capable of precisely and stably supplying inert gases necessary for foam molding, such as carbon dioxide (CO2) and nitrogen (N2).

【Renewal & New Model Launch!】 - Smaller and lighter than the previous model - Equipped with a 12-inch large screen touch panel - Precise control of gas supply volume is possible through data linkage with various molding machines Foaming with CO₂ or N₂ experiences significant changes in bubble diameter and foaming conditions due to minor fluctuations in supply volume. Additionally, traditional pump methods using pressure control have seen supply volume fluctuate due to pressure changes at the gas injection point of the molding machine. Plasteco's supercritical inert gas quantitative supply device maintains a constant supply mass and automatically adjusts the supply pressure to follow the pressure at the supply point, enabling precise control of the supply volume at all times and achieving uniform and fine foaming. Furthermore, by precisely controlling the gas addition amount through data linkage (optional) with extrusion and injection molding machines, stabilization of foaming ratios and reduction in the weight of molded products become possible. It can accommodate a wide range of applications, from small flow rates for small molding machines to large flow rates for large molding machines, as well as RIM molding and other uses. It also supports flow control, high-pressure compatibility, and other options, making it suitable for various applications.

• Extrusion Machine

Foamed sheets made from biodegradable resin PLA (polylactic acid) that are produced using environmentally friendly methods. They can be used for food trays, agricultural products, medical supplies, packaging, and cushioning materials.

Plasteco Co., Ltd. has consistently focused on "plastic production that considers people and the Earth" since its establishment. Through our unique technology that uses a safe inert gas with a low global warming potential to foam resins, we conduct research on plastic products and manufacturing methods that address environmental and resource issues, as well as the development and manufacturing of related equipment. With this technology, we have successfully achieved high-density foaming of plant-based biodegradable resins like PLA (polylactic acid), which were previously difficult to foam. Our foamed plastics are carbon neutral, derived from non-petroleum sources, and do not generate excess CO₂ during manufacturing and disposal processes, making them advanced materials that can be safely used in the future. Our foamed sheets are 100% biodegradable and do not use chemical foaming agents. Amid growing global concern over plastic waste, they can be applied in various fields as new environmentally friendly products, including food trays, packaging materials, and medical products. We have vacuum forming equipment and molds for testing, allowing for prototyping from sheets to formed products.
