M·VERA® GP1045

Home compostable and almost 100 % renewable content

M·VERA® GP1045 impresses with its environmentally friendly properties. It is certified according to OK compost HOME and OK biodegradable SOIL which means that it is home compostable and biodegradable in the soil. It also fulfils the requirements for contact with food.

With a content of 98 % renewable raw materials M·VERA® GP1045 offers a sustainable solution for a wide range of applications. Due to the high proportion of renewable raw materials in the polymer, M·VERA® GP1045 is able to minimise the CO2-Footprint of products compared to fossil-based materials.

With a low density and a heat deflection temperature of over 95 °C, the compound offers a wide range of applications. It is characterised by a beige-coloured, translucent appearance and can be moulded excellently on injection moulding machines.

M·VERA® GP1045 is ideal for applications such as coffee capsules, products with film hinges and moulded parts for the agricultural sector. This combination of environmental friendliness and practical properties makes it an excellent choice for modern, sustainable products.
