After years of research and development, we’re thrilled to be announcing our partnership with the sustainable home care and detergent makers - MACK. Together we’re announcing Notpla’s first commercial application of our award-winning Film material, designed to bring about a true transformation in sustainability at home for thousands of people. Our innovative solution, the Notpla Film sachets for homeware and laundry products, shatters the limitations of PLA, dissolving completely in water and naturally biodegrading, leaving no microplastics behind.
We’ve long relied on the convenient laundry and dishwasher pods cloaked in a water-soluble material - the problem is, this is a material that few of us understand and have even been lead to believe is plastic-free. Polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) is the name of this synthetic plastic polymerand, sadly, it’s anything but the ‘eco solution’ that it’s claimed to be. A recent study shows that 76% of the annual 17,200 metric tons of PVA from these pods in the USA alone contributes to plastic pollution.
Notpla Film, unlike conventional fossil fuel-derived options, naturally biodegrades without releasing harmful microplastics. Available in rolls designed to fit into existing flexible film equipment in existing supply chains. Notpla Film comes in two types Cold water soluble and Compostable.
