Stepping into the Future with Eco-Friendly Materials
Bags & Gloves Co., Ltd., a leading Thai manufacturer of plastic gloves, plastic bags, and film products, is driving toward a critical objective: the genuine development of environmentally responsible production technology.
One of the core innovations we proudly champion is “Bio-based Products.” These solutions significantly reduce reliance on petroleum and represent a vital step in transitioning our business toward true sustainability.
What are Bio-based Plastics?
Bio-based products are materials manufactured from natural, renewable raw materials—such as sugarcane, corn, or cassava—instead of conventional petroleum-based feedstock.
Recognizing the importance of this material transition, we have invested in both production technology and the sourcing of eco-friendly raw materials to develop high-quality plastic gloves, plastic bags, and other products using bio-based plastic resins.
International Standards That Prove Quality
When selecting raw materials, we are committed to choosing and procuring bio-based plastic resins that have achieved recognized international certifications. This validates that the plastic resin genuinely originates from bio-based sources.
Bio-based Material Standards:
- ASTM D6866 – US standard for analyzing bio-based carbon content.
- EN 16640 – European standard for bio-based product certification.
- ISO 16620-2 – International standard for bio-based plastic products.
- OK-biobased – Certification mark from TÜV Austria.
Compostability Standards (If Applicable):
If the plastic resin is also designed to be compostable, we ensure it meets additional global degradation standards, such as:
- EN 13432 – European standard for compostable materials.
- ASTM D6400 – US standard for plastics designed to be composted.
- ISO 17088 – International standard for compostable plastics.
- AS 4736 – Australian standard for compostable plastics.
Furthermore, products must be certified by credible institutions like TÜV Austria or DIN CERTCO.
Investing in a Sustainable Future
Our investment in bio-based products is not merely a technological upgrade; it is a profound investment in the future of the planet and the environment. Every time we choose bio-based plastic resin, it results in:
- Reduced Use of Fossil Resources: Lowering dependence on finite petroleum reserves.
- Lower Carbon Footprint: Achieving long-term reductions in carbon dioxide emissions throughout the product’s life cycle.
- Supporting the Circular Economy: Specifically through the use of Renewable Resources and supporting the biological cycle of resource flow.
This approach is fundamental to creating a balance between business and nature.
Our Bio-based Product Range
We have developed and manufactured a diverse range of products utilizing bio-based raw materials, including:
- Bio-based Plastic Gloves: Functionality remains unchanged, yet they are significantly more environmentally friendly.
- Bio-based Shopping and Waste Bags: As durable as conventional bags, but with a lower planetary impact.
- Bio-based Plastic Films: Suitable for general industrial and food industry applications.
These products are meticulously designed to maintain the durability and safety required for practical use while delivering a demonstrably lower environmental footprint.
The Starting Point of a Green Future
The development of bio-based products by Bags and Gloves Co., Ltd. demonstrates our commitment to steering the Thai plastics industry toward sustainability. This is achieved by blending:
- Modern Production Technology
- The Choice of Eco-friendly Raw Materials
- World-Class Certification Standards
We are ready to be a part of the change toward a cleaner, more sustainable world. We believe that a successful business is measured not just by its profit, but by its responsibility toward the planet.
