What we do
Moving into the Era of No Plastic Containers.
IZ EARTH (PLA)" as an ODM/OEM partner.
The newly developed IZ EARTH (PLA/polylactic acid thin-walled container) can be used in direct contact with food products, such as beverage cups and confectionery containers.
Replacing one ton of conventional plastic with one ton of IZ EARTH (PLA/polylactic acid thin-walled container) can reduce CO2 emissions by approximately 2.5 tons*.
In addition, the product can be developed into drink cups with corporate and municipal logos, transparent containers for Western and Japanese confectionery, and other applications.
We can also be commissioned to develop molds with unique designs, so please feel free to contact us.
