What is PLA?• PLA is a polymer made from Lactic Acid
• Lactic Acid is a naturally occurring product that may be found in the body, yogurt & many other foods
• Lactic Acid is made from fermentable sugars
• Sugars are found in plant crops
• Corn sugar (dextrose) is used to make Lactic Acid

SUSTAINABILITYIs it enough to drive the momentum for the
adoption of biopolymers?
• Sustainability is a very complex issue
• There are widespread theories on what it means and how to gauge improvement
• Brands still depend on performance, cost, availability and suitable disposal facilities
IF YOU TALK THE TALK…………

Responsibility
Let’s talk about that….

Responsibility Required
• Business environment changing
• Consumers expect responsibility and accountability
• Consumers want action not words
• Responsibility (making a positive impact) is building the landscape for tomorrow’s world

Road Blocks?
![Page 20: DZOLV PRODUCTS PTY LTD BIO-BASED MATERIALS Copyright DZOLV Products Pty Ltd 2006.](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051412/551ad4e4550346856e8b612f/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Key Challenges…• Poor experiences with past technologies
- Starch / poly-olefin blends, inferior performance, etc.
• Is the new any better than the old? - PLA is virtually a “drop in” on PET and PS products
• Higher cost perception, material switching- Quality & efficiencies are improving going forward
- Price of crude oil continually on the rise
![Page 21: DZOLV PRODUCTS PTY LTD BIO-BASED MATERIALS Copyright DZOLV Products Pty Ltd 2006.](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051412/551ad4e4550346856e8b612f/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Key Challenges (cont’d)…• Recycling & disposal
- Large volumes are needed to develop infrastructure dedicated recycling and composting
• All talk, no action - Governments and industry need to load the “eco” gun and start firing the “eco” bullets
• GM Issue- No GM present in PLA (3rd party certification)
- A sustainable roadmap for the future is better than no roadmap at all
![Page 22: DZOLV PRODUCTS PTY LTD BIO-BASED MATERIALS Copyright DZOLV Products Pty Ltd 2006.](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051412/551ad4e4550346856e8b612f/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
So where are we going?
![Page 23: DZOLV PRODUCTS PTY LTD BIO-BASED MATERIALS Copyright DZOLV Products Pty Ltd 2006.](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051412/551ad4e4550346856e8b612f/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Biopolymers like PLA can be strong points of inspiration. Companies are starting to realise that informed choices on materials can help to build better brand recognition.
![Page 24: DZOLV PRODUCTS PTY LTD BIO-BASED MATERIALS Copyright DZOLV Products Pty Ltd 2006.](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051412/551ad4e4550346856e8b612f/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Emotional Attributes• Natural, Safe, Fresh – made from nature, ideal for packaging
• End-of-Life – corn to compost, burns cleaner, can be recycled
• Beautiful – can be transparent like glass or opaque like ceramic
• Detail – can be embossed
• Texture – Stiff and easy to twist and fold
• Patina – unique abrasion resistance
Companies are starting to pay attention to the emotional attributes as much as they do the
physical ones when decision making
