Eco-Friendly Packaging Solutions

Intec Bioplastics Inc. has successfully launched ‘EarthPlus® Hercules Bioflex™ Sustainable Stretch Wrap,’ a new eco-friendly packaging solution. The stretch wrap -- suitable for pallet wrapping and food packaging -- is made with 35% plant-based material and is certified by the Association of Plastic Recyclers (APR) for its recyclability.

Hercules Bioflex™ offers high performance with an elongation capacity of 1,799%, comparable to conventional wraps, while dramatically reducing plastic use and associated microplastic pollution. It is temperature-tolerant (resisting heat and cold) and helps customers cut their carbon footprint. Early adopters have responded positively, with every initial buyer reordering the product. Intec positions this bioplastic film as a cost-effective, sustainable alternative to traditional stretch wraps, aligning with companies’ net-zero and waste-reduction goals.

The introduction of Hercules Bioflex™ stretch wrap demonstrates rising commercial demand for sustainable packaging in logistics and food supply chains. Intec Bioplastics is tapping into corporate ESG pressures by offering a product that can help businesses reduce plastic waste and meet recyclability standards.
