What d2w does?

d2w accelerates the natural process of oxidation until the product is no longer a plastic,
but a material which can be bio-assimilated (i.e. used as a food source) by bacteria
and fungi on land or sea.

Best of all, if it escapes collection and ends up as litter in the environment, it will degrade and
biodegrade in a continuous, irreversible and unstoppable process until there is nothing left,
in the same way as nature’s waste. No toxic residues and no microplastics

Descriptivo técnico

d2w – Tecnología para degradación de embalajes con vida útil controlada

Is it globally used?

Several countries in Africa, Asia and the Middle East have already legislated to require
everyday plastic items to be made with this technology – because it works.

new biodegradable packaging.

Looks and feels like ordinary plastic
In terms of strength, aesthetics, flexibility and optical properties.

Only 1% can make the difference
Included at the manufacturing stage, at only 1% – means little or no extra costs.

Complies with international standards
OBP products have been tested according to ASTMD6954 and other
international standards and were found to be Degradable, Biodegradable and Non eco-toxic.

SASO and ESMA Approved
The first to be approved

Non-disruptive
A drop-in technology, so no need to change suppliers.

Recyclable
d2w can be recycled with conventional polymer and can be made with recyclate.
As demonstrated by expert laboratories in Austria and South Africa

Suitable for food contact
According to FDA & EU food contact regulations.

No Toxic Residues and No Microplastics
