A long-established barrier to growth for the global biopolymer industry has been producing a grade of material that is bio-based, low cost and home compostable.Biome Bioplastics have determined a potential method to produce a material that can be successfully composted at lower temperatures (~25oC), rather than the industry standard temperature (~55oC).This new grade of material keeps very similar material properties to existing grades of (non-home compostable) biopolymers. This makes it an extremely attractive product within the biopolymer market, with a strong competitive edge - due to more favourable end of life credentials.Biome wish to conduct further analysis of this material to gain a deeper understanding of the root causes of the changes to the compostability in order to broaden the products that can be exploited using this material. This will enable Biome to refine and monitor key measurements to improve product quality and consistency at commercial scale and exploit additional markets.

全球生物聚合物行业长期存在的增长障碍是生产生物基、低成本和可家庭堆肥的材料。Biome Bio Plastics 已经确定了一种潜在的方法来生产可在较低温度下成功堆肥的材料(~25oC)，而不是行业标准温度 (~55oC)。这种新级别的材料与现有级别的（非家庭可堆肥）生物聚合物保持非常相似的材料特性。这使得它成为生物聚合物市场上极具吸引力的产品，具有强大的竞争优势 - 由于更有利的寿命结束凭证。Biome 希望对该材料进行进一步分析，以更深入地了解导致变化的根本原因。可堆肥性，以扩大使用这种材料可开发的产品。这将使 Biome 能够完善和监控关键测量，以提高商业规模的产品质量和一致性，并开拓更多市场。
