Find Your Compatible Additive

Biodegradability is the capacity for something to be naturally broken down into its most basic components by microorganisms such as bacteria and fungi. While all plastics are technically biodegradable, they take hundreds of years to deconstruct. Now, thanks to BioSphere, plastic polymer biodegradation is faster, economical, and aligned with a sustainable future.

PET/PET Fibers

Our 201 pellet additive containing 100% active ingredients works effectively in PET and PET fiber applications.

For PET applications where clarity is important, BioSphere has developed a specialty 202 pellet additive for clear thermoformed and extruded PET. For clear injection molded and stretch blow molded applications, BioSphere developed the 203 pellet additive.

PP/PE

Our 201 pellet additive containing 100% active ingredients works effectively in PP and PE applications.

PS

PS, in both solid and extruded form, is compatible with our biodegradable pellet additives. Our 401 powder additive is specifically designed for the manufacturing of expanded polystyrene beads during the polymerization process.

Other Polymer Types

While the majority of our customers use our additive in PP, PE, PET, and PS applications, our solution is designed to be compatible with virtually every polymer type application. If you are looking for a biodegradable solution for another type of polymer, get in touch with us so we can outline your specific needs.

The BioSphere Difference

BioSphere has been designed to overcome the hurdles that other biodegradable technologies face, and offers a valuable cost difference. Unlike other biodegradable plastic additives, Biosphere allows the microbes in both aerobic and anaerobic environments to consume plastic from deep within—not just on the surface—and works much faster than other technologies.

Compared to other options, BioSphere’s biodegradable additive is more affordable—and the technology is superior.
