Jiaoda Nasi Company, relying on its core water-based coating technology, has launched a truly degradable and recyclable food packaging solution
With the advancement of the global "plastic ban" and the awakening of consumers' environmental awareness, the demand for disposable plastic packaging alternatives in the takeout and fast food industries has become increasingly urgent. Recently, a technology enterprise from Nanjing - Jiaoda Nasi (Nanjing) Technology Co., LTD. - announced that its independently developed "fully biodegradable water-based barrier coating paper bowl" has achieved large-scale production and been launched to the market. This product, with its outstanding performance and environmentally friendly features, is expected to offer a Chinese solution to the white pollution problem in the food packaging field.
Technological Breakthrough: Replacing "plastic" with "Water", the Green Revolution of paper Bowls
The reason why traditional paper bowls can hold soup and oil is that there is a thin plastic coating (usually polyethylene, PE) on their inner walls. This layer of "plastic" damage makes paper bowls difficult to degrade in the natural environment. When recycled, they also become "waste" due to the difficulty in separating plastic from fibers.
The core breakthrough of Jiaoda Nagi Company lies in completely discarding this layer of plastic film. Relying on the scientific research strength of the School of Materials Science and Engineering of Shanghai Jiao Tong University, the company has successfully developed a food-grade water-based barrier coating. This coating uses water as the dispersion medium and, through key technologies such as nano-modification, forms a dense, stable and non-toxic protective layer on the surface of paper.
You can imagine this coating as putting on an intelligent "raincoat" for the paper. The person in charge of the research and development of Jiaotong University's Nasi explained, "It can not only effectively block water, oil and moisture, ensuring that the paper bowl does not leak or deform during use and maintains sufficient strength, but its main components are also derived from natural or biodegradable polymer materials." This means that after use, the entire paper bowl can be completely degraded into carbon dioxide, water and organic matter under industrial composting conditions, or easily "re-pulped" in a professional paper mill, achieving efficient recycling of paper fibers.
Outstanding performance: Not only about environmental protection, but also about safety and practicality
After rigorous testing, this plastic-free paper bowl demonstrates performance comparable to or even superior to that of traditional PE laminated paper bowls
Safe and non-toxic: All materials comply with Chinese and international food contact material standards, with no risk of plasticizer migration, safeguarding consumers' "food safety on the tip of the tongue".
Strong barrier effect: Can withstand hot drinks and oily soups at 100℃, and will not leak even after long-term storage.
Heat sealing molding: Suitable for automated production lines, facilitating large-scale and high-efficiency manufacturing.
Print-friendly: The surface is easy to print with brand logos and environmental protection concepts, enhancing the brand's green image.
Market prospects: Responding to global policies and empowering green business
Currently, from the EU's SUP directive to the upgraded "plastic restriction" measures across China, the use of non-biodegradable plastic packaging is facing increasingly strict restrictions. Many export-oriented enterprises, chain restaurant brands and large food enterprises are all under urgent pressure to replace their packaging.
The plastic-free paper bowl products of Jiaoda Nasi precisely provide these enterprises with compliant and leading solutions. It not only solves environmental protection problems, but also helps enterprises shape a responsible brand image and meet the growing trend of green consumption.
"We have currently made contact and conducted tests with several well-known food enterprises and food delivery platforms," said the marketing director of Jiaoda Nasi. "The feedback has been very positive." What customers value is not only the environmental friendliness of the product, but also its stable performance and the ability to be supplied on a large scale. We believe that starting from a cup of coffee and a bowl of noodle soup, the transformation of green packaging is accelerating.
