Biomass resin compatible with the reduction of 12 items of disposable plastic.
Response to the 12 items to be reduced based on the Plastic Resource Circulation Promotion Act, corn-derived biomass-based resin materials.
The biomass material developed in-house by VASU Corporation (a Hong Kong capital enterprise) is a resin material derived from biomass (corn starch) for which it holds a patent. Yashima Denso is a technical trading company that serves as the official domestic agent for VASU, providing support from resin materials to mass production delivery of molds and molded products. *Mold design and quality are supported by dedicated technical staff. In Japan, much of the biomass resin is often used for flexible packaging and bottles, and there are challenges such as coloring, odor, and strength in biomass resins for injection molding. VASU's materials offer grades suitable for injection molding, featuring excellent moldability, coloring performance, strength, cost, and reduced CO2 emissions during combustion based on actual measurements. Among the 12 targeted items, some samples are available for provision: Forks, spoons, straws, hairbrushes, toothbrushes, hangers, knives, stirrers, combs, razors, shower caps, clothing covers. ☆Environmental Standards RoHS, REACH, FDA, DIN EN 13432 (biodegradable), compliance with Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare Notification No. 370, JORA Biomass Mark The above items have been addressed or are planned to be addressed.
