Australian Cardia Bioplastics Limited was selected as packaging partner to help Nature Organics bring breakthrough environmental performance to customers of “Earth Choice” and “Purity” laundry products and “Organic Care” personal care products. Natures Organics Managing Director Justin Dowel said Natures Organics has a strong track record of using environmentally responsible packaging. “At Natures Organics, our motivation is based on a philosophy of creating environmentally responsible products, of the best quality, at the lowest possible price.” Were the first in Australia to produce 100% recycled Pet bottles for household cleaning products and we use Bioplastics across our Organic Care range,” he said. Cardia Biohybrid™ proprietary technology combines renewable thermoplastics with polyolefin material to reduce dependence on finite oil resources and to reduce carbon footprint. “The combination of packaging performance, environmental profile and cost effectiveness made Cardia Biohybrid™ technology a natural choice for our packaging,” Justin Dowel said. Cardia Bioplastics Managing Director Dr Frank Glitz said the Natures Organics philosophy and Cardia Biohybrid™ packaging technology were aligned. “We conducted a collaborative product development process with the Natures Organics technical team that was rigorous and efficient,” he said. “Using the testing capability of the Melbourne based Cardia Bioplastics Application Development Centre shortened our time to market. We were able to fully apply our global expertise in laundry and body care packaging to the Natures Organics product packaging and fast tracked the project,” said Frank Glatz. Cardia is well positioned to benefit from the trend towards sustainable packaging. It gives customers the choice of using sustainable Cardia BiohybridTM technology (less oil, lower carbon foot print) or Compostable technology offering (certified compost ability to international standards) for their packaging or plastic product solutions. The company’s materials are suitable for a broad range of packaging applications, including flexible film, injection molding, blow molding, foam, and extrusion and coating applications.
