Difference between PLA and CPLA

PLA is a crystalline material, which is highly transparent before crystallization and has a heat resistance temperature of only 60 degrees. After crystallization, the heat resistance temperature increases to over 100 degrees, and the product changes from transparent to milky white. CPLA is crystallized from PLA, with a heat resistance of up to 100 ℃ and high hardness that is not easily deformed. It has high food contact safety and is a safer and more cost-effective PLA biodegradable material.

CPLA is a modified material of PLA that has undergone crystallization treatment. Due to its higher thermal stability and mechanical strength, it is suitable for products that require heat resistance.

  1. Tableware for catering occasions that require heat resistance, such as plates, bowls, spoons, knives, forks, cups, etc. (such as hot soup, hot rice, etc.).

Due to the heat resistance of CPLA material, it can be used to accommodate hot food and has become an ideal choice for the food delivery industry.

Compared to ordinary PLA, CPLA has better heat resistance and can withstand higher temperatures, making it suitable for producing high-temperature disposable tableware (such as hot soup bowls, hot beverage cups, etc.).

  1. Due to its high temperature resistance, CPLA material is commonly used for heat-resistant outer packaging such as paper cup jackets and coffee cups to prevent direct contact with hands at high temperatures.

5.CPLA, due to its high heat resistance and hardness, is suitable for carrying heavy objects and can be used as a hot meal tray in the aviation and catering industries.

6.CPLA material has high mechanical properties and good thermal stability, which can replace traditional plastic packaging and be used for packaging of food, cosmetics, daily chemicals, etc.

Common application of PLA and CPLA

Environmentally friendly packaging solutions: With the increasing awareness of environmental protection, more and more companies are reducing the pollution of traditional plastics to the environment. Starting to use PLA and CPLA materials to produce various environmentally friendly packaging products, biodegradable garbage bags: Some environmentally friendly products such as garbage bags and waste collection bags also use PLA or CPLA materials to achieve biodegradation.

Household goods: PLA and CPLA can be used to produce environmentally friendly household goods such as cleaning brushes and cutlery rack.

Equipment features

High Automation:

The PLA extrusion production line features modern design principles and is equipped with an advanced automation control system. Through computer-programmed control, the entire production process—including parameters such as temperature, speed, and pressure—can be automatically adjusted, enhancing production stability and efficiency.

Energy-Efficient and Environmentally Friendly:

The line incorporates optimized design and efficient heating and cooling technologies to minimize energy consumption. A waste recycling system is also implemented to recover offcuts and defective plastic during production, reprocessing them into new raw materials. This reduces resource waste and contributes to environmental protection.

Consistent Product Quality and Stability:

Thanks to precise extrusion processes and high-quality equipment, the plastic packaging materials produced exhibit uniform thickness, stable dimensions, and smooth surfaces, meeting the high-quality standards required for premium packaging applications.

Adjustability and Customization:

The production line allows for the adjustment of material thickness, strength, transparency, and other parameters according to customer specifications, catering to the diverse needs of various packaging types.

Easy Maintenance:

The equipment is designed for easy daily maintenance and upkeep, minimizing downtime and ensuring consistent operation throughout the production process.
