SPM® suspension is a perfect additive for the paper and pulp sector. It can be used as a multifunctional additive to improve strength or barrier properties in various existing materials without changing the manufacturing process. It is also a great alternative to fossil-fuel-based additives in cosmetics and other commonly used chemicals.
Films
A high performing solution which is durable,
100% free of plastic and home compostable.
The material serves as an oxygen and a microbial barrier. It is insoluble in water and impermeable to water which makes it a great alternative to plastic-coated paper and plastic foils. From bags to sachets, the material can be used for all kinds of packaging and wrapping that might normally be done with plastic.
*Material for food contact approved.

“What if we could grow materials instead of making them and at the end of their cycle, use them as fertilizer which would then be used to continue the cycle of a biological production system?”
