Degradation & Sustainability
Up to 99% Degradation Within 336 Days
YG Degradable BOPP Film achieves up to 99% degradation within 336 days for the facestock under the applicable test conditions.
The degradation result applies specifically to the facestock. Where the film is combined with adhesives, inks, coatings, or other materials, the environmental performance of the complete finished structure should be evaluated separately.
No Industrial Composting or Soil Burial Required
The film is designed for degradation in open environments and does not depend on industrial composting facilities or soil burial as a required degradation pathway.
Helps Reduce Long-Term Plastic Accumulation
Its designed degradation pathway provides a practical end-of-life option for customers seeking alternatives to conventional persistent plastic film.
