New Eco-Innovation: How Biodegradable Release Films Could Reshape the Future of Daily Products

Amid the escalating crisis of plastic pollution—with over 300 million tons of plastic waste generated globally each year, 60% of which ends up in landfills or the natural environment—the ecological burden of non-degradable materials is reaching a tipping point. As an "invisible配角" in industrial chains, release films alone consume over 10 billion square meters annually in the label industry. Their inability to degrade has quietly intensified environmental pressures. Now, as sustainability demands collide with technological breakthroughs, biodegradable release films are sparking a silent yet profound materials revolution—one that could redefine everyday scenarios from kitchens to laboratories.

Release films, akin to industrial "transparent tape," play critical yet understated roles in electronics encapsulation, food packaging labels, medical dressing backings, and more. Traditional polyester-based release films, with their robust molecular bonds, require over 200 years to degrade naturally. Producing just 1 ton of such film releases 2.8 tons of CO2 equivalents. Even more alarming: micron-scale fragments from degrading films have been detected in Atlantic Ocean currents at concentrations exceeding 2 million pieces per square kilometer.

Rephar Tech’s PLA (Polylactic Acid)-based fully biodegradable release film breaks the limitations of conventional materials. Rooted in the philosophy of "From Nature, Back to Nature," it offers global brands an innovative solution that balances sustainability and practicality.

The company’s intelligent production line demonstrates end-to-end capabilities from R&D to commercialization:

• Cost Optimization: Drives affordability of eco-materials through process innovations and material breakthroughs.

• Low-Carbon Production: Reduces energy consumption and carbon emissions via advanced manufacturing technologies.

• Flexible Customization: Supports tailored specifications for diverse applications, including food packaging, electronics, and medical sectors.
