Description

BioFoam® is a particle foam made from E-PLA (Expanded Poly Lactic Acid). Foamed PLA beads are fused to make light weight products like complex packaging parts or simple plates. These beads can be used as such as well in applications like beanbags or cushion fillings.

Biobased feedstock is used to make lactic acid, the building block for PLA. Sugar from sugarcane or beet, corn and cassava are the main sources. BioFoam® is fully circular: it is biobased, biodegradable and also recyclable.

The carbon footprint of PLA is low compared to fossil-based alternatives because of the biobased origin. The CO2 that might be released at the end of life of a BioFoam® part is captured again by the plants that grow to make new feedstock for PLA.

Most of the properties of BioFoam® are similar to EPS. On top of that BioFoam® falls in the highest category of biobased content (> 85%), is certified for food contact applications by Triskelion and the fact that BioFoam® is biodegradable offers extra options for the end of life. BioFoam® will be converted into water and CO2 when composted. It is even Cradle-2-Cradle certified.

Our refill bags allow to easily top-up your bean bag to keep it plump and comfortable, or to replace the existing polystyrene plastic beads in another product. It is child and pet friendly, although it is a choking hazard and should be treated as such. Biofoam doesn’t harm the environment and keeps its shape, ensuring our beanbags are incredibly comfortable. Perfect as a polystyrene alternative for use in crafting and furniture making.

Choose from various sizes of top-up from 60, 120, 180 or 240 litres of filling.
