Film Resins

DaniMer resins for film are based on natural, renewable materials and offer an environmentally friendly option to petroleum derived resins such as polyethylene and polypropylene. DaniMer ReNew Resins for agricultural films are compostable/biodegradable which enables endusers to benefit from avoiding the cost of removal and land filling. DaniMer film resins are compostable and can be incorporated into the soil after use to eliminate the time and cost involved in removal and disposal of non-degradable films. DaniMer films are not photo-degradable so they can be used in most applications where good UV resistance is needed. All DaniMer films are tested for compostability according to ASTM D 6400-04, EN 14332 (2000) and ISO 17088 (2008) standards.
