d2w® plastics have been extensively tested and proven
by independent test laboratories.
Packaging and plastics professionals will be aware of
the almost infinite permutations of base polymer resins and additives as well
as production processes. Clearly, it is impossible for every combination to be
tested separately and for this reason users are encouraged to undertake their
own testing and verification. This is particularly important in the case of use
in direct food contact where users must satisfy themselves of product
suitability.
Product development is taking place all the time and
confirmation of degradability is incorporated in the course of routine quality
control procedures.
Some information on tests undertaken in the
United Kingdom
is provided here and further local test results can be found on the web sites
of our international distributor network.
The
certificates and the laboratory results would be places at the disposal of
interested persons and organizations after a written request at e-mail address:
office@synthesia.bg. The request shall
comprise contact data for the person who has placed the request together with
an explanation for the purpose of the required documents.
