LACTIPS

At Lactips, we have developed a process to transform a natural protein into a revolutionary polymer, thus providing manufacturers with a turnkey solution for reducing plastic waste and managing the end-of-life of materials used in their operations.

• Specialized in protein as a polymer,
• Caracterisation of biopolymers,
• Formulation and understanding of the proteins polymers structures.

We manufacture our CareTips® pellets using a natural protein and plant-based additives, unmodified and with no added chemicals.
Biodegradability is vital to ensure that resource use remains part of a virtuous circle. In its absence, polymers release potentially harmful micro-particles throughout their life cycle.
When immersed, even at room temperature, our CareTips® pellets dissolve completely in water with no residue.

Whether it be in the plastics or paper industries, CareTips® provides a comprehensive technical solution to help tackle microplastic pollution.
Thanks to its thermoplastic and aqueous dispersion properties, our material is perfectly compatible with all standard processes (blown extrusion, aqueous coating, extrusion-coating, etc.) and can be used with all existing equipment.
