Bioplastics Made Better with Cellulose Fiber

Sustainable. Cost-Effective. High Performance. 

Bioplastics are the future of packaging and manufacturing, offering a biodegradable, compostable alternative to petroleum-based plastics. With JRS USA, ARBOCEL® cellulose fibers unlock the full potential of bioplastics by delivering cost savings, improved performance, and eco-friendly solutions. 

The Formulation Challenge 

While bioplastics are promising, they often face cost and performance limitations, such as: 
  • High reliance on expensive PLA (polylactic acid) 
  • Processing inefficiencies 
  • Mechanical strength concerns 

ARBOCEL® Cellulose: The Game Changer for Bioplastics 

Adding JRS cellulose fibers to your bioplastic formulation offers the following:

Higher Output: Improved melt flow index (MFI) for faster cycle times and increased production


Superior Strength: Enhanced elasticity and flex modulus for durable, high-performance products

Cost Savings: Reduce expensive PLA (polylactic acid) content without sacrificing quality
Stable Heat Resistance: Maintains crystallinity and melting point for consistent results
100% Biodegradable: Aligns with global sustainability goals

Applications

Packaging

Consumer Goods

Automotive Components

Agricultural Films

Conclusion

Bioplastics represent a critical step toward reducing global plastic waste and achieving sustainability goals.
