Technology
Midori Biodegradable Solutions
Accelerating the natural biodegradation process
The Midori Biosolutions additive can be applied to nearly all polymer types, processes, and applications to reduce the amount of waste taking up space in landfills.
How it works
Integrating our technology into plastics speeds the biodegradation process from centuries to just a few years*
Step 1
Integrate additive during extrusion or compounding stage
Step 2
Opens polymer chain allowing water & microbes to enter
Step 3
Breaks down to “Element” level:
- Inert humus, which makes soil richer
- Biogas, promotes renewable energy development
Key benefits
A sustainable for solution for plastics, textiles and other synthetics
- Biodegradation only starts when in active landfill or marine environment
- Plastic breaks down at a molecular level harnessing natures microbes
- 100% organic and non-starch based, no heavy metals, non-toxic.
- Leaves behind no microplastics/nanoplastics at end of life
- 5-15% biodegradation in the first 30 days (ASTM D5511)
- Can provide a carbon neutral offset
Integration
We offer a cost-effective end-of-life solution for all plastics
Whether a plastic is flexible or rigid, and is extruded, molded, thermoformed, spun, compounded, or laminated, our cost-effective additive can make it biodegradable in a biologically active landfill.
Applications
Integrates seamlessly into most manufacturing processes
Products made with our easy-to-use technology have the same physical properties and tensile strength. This means the plastics will perform just as well as those manufactured without our technology, but with the added benefit of biodegrading when discarded in a biologically active landfill.
