Metabolix compostable resin

Mvera B5008, a certified compostable film grade resin, is designed for a variety of applications including compost bags, can liners for organic waste, and shopping and retail bags that can be reused as compostable organic waste bags. It is certified to meet the ASTM D6400 standard for industrial composting and to meet the EN 13432 standard for compostable plastics. The film resin is designed for blow or cast film processing and reportedly has the same performance qualities of petroleum-based resins, including excellent melt strength, tear resistant, good adhesion with other compostable polymers, and more.
