It is possible to contribute to a society that considers the Earth (nature)! Let me introduce the biodegradation test.
The "Vulcanized Fiber," which takes into consideration the Earth (nature), is an SDGs product aimed at a plastic-free society. Recently, we conducted a soil degradation test in accordance with ISO standards and compared the degradation speed with that of common bioplastics (PLA). As a result, "Vulcanized Fiber decomposes faster than bioplastics (PLA)." In other words, by using "Vulcanized Fiber," you can contribute to a society that is considerate of the Earth (nature). [Test Results] ■ Measurement results according to ISO 14855-2 testing method ■ Validity of test results - Compost activity - Biodegradability of positive control (cellulose) - Variability of positive control at the end of the test ■ Condition of samples during stirring operations *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.
