Competence in bio-foils

The future of films and packaging spells biodegradable and compostable products.VICTORGROUP proudly presents a trend-setting innovation:

Compostable films made from renewable raw materials

Our films protect the environment and natural resources. We use them for a complete range of film products, such as carrier bags for various retailing chains.

Side with VICTORGROUP’s bio shopping bags and you are part of a market and consumer trend, which encompasses a „green“ lifestyle with a complete bio-product range for consumers.

Advantages in comparison with traditional plastic

  • Protects the Environment: 100 per cent biodegradable and compostable – noticeably less greenhouse gases are emitted into the atmosphere
  • Protects Resources: Minus 30 per cent consumption of fossil fuel and resources
  • Product Quality: Significantly better stretch and greater tensile strength – far stronger bags
  • Multiple Uses: Bags can also be used for composting domestic refuse and leftovers
  • Environmental Legislation Preempted: In view of increasing sanctions and legal impediments to PE shopping bags our bio-film products are the right alternative at the right time.
  • Degrading: Within industrial composting more than 90 per cent of the products are biologically degraded in as soon as 80 days. What is left is water, CO2 and organic substance.

Degrading through composting

Composting not possible

Raw materials used

The raw materials used in production as well as the technology are globally certified and internationally recognized. The environment-friendliness of our products rests on the optimized biological raw materials mix during production as well as on the complete biological degradation of the products after use.

Internationally recognized quality symbols for completely biodegradable materials will be found on all VICTORGROUP films.

VICTORGROUP relies on bio-quality

At VICTORGROUP we care about the environment: Sustainability, CO2 reduction and avoidance of plastic garbage are central to the development and the production of our merchandise. That is why we pay a lot of attention to how the production of our bio-range impacts on the environment. Selection of the right raw materials is the first step in this process.

We rely on closed circuits:

Biodegradable polymer/plastic materials are first turned into bio-film and later, in the course of the product life cycle, become valuable compost. The amount of CO2 released into the environment is the same as that taken in by the plant during growth.
