Bioplastic as one of
Alternative
In Land Plastic Waste Problem
• Poor waste management
Marine Plastic waste problem
• island country - large coastal line - 54,710 km -
240 million population
• estimated contribution of *12 % to the global
marine plastic waste, creating microplastic
formation, especially now increased by
spreading use of oxodegradable plastic.

The danger of Microplastics
Microplastic are tiny plastic particles up to 5 mm in diameter.
In the last four decades, concentration on these particles appear to have increased
significantly in the surface waters of the ocean.
Oxodegradable plastics are suspected as primary contributor of the increased on
microplastic in our environment.

Cassava Production and its starch in
Indonesia
•Cassava (Root) Production 2015
: 23.7 million ton
•Cassava starch 2015 : 5.86 juta ton
•For food and Food Industry : 81 %
•For non Food Industry : 19 %

Raw Material and Curent Capacity.
• Our capacity now for bioplastic pelet is around 300 ton permonth. For
securing the availability of our feed stock with more competitive price,
due to increase of cassava starch price , starting last year we tried for
the possibility of using corn starch instead of cassava starch in our
compounding formulation . The availability of corn in Indonesia is much
more improving in the last five years. Berfore 2016 the average corn
production is 11 million tons , Then in 2016/2017 adding one million
hectares of corn plantations in Indonesia. The government has
budgeted IDR 2.5 trillion (approx. USD $187 million) for the purchase of
land and IDR 750 billion (approx. USD $56 million) for corn seeds.In 2018
it is reported that total production is 18.5 million tons.

ENVIPLAST ® as a starch-based
Biodegradable Bioplastic
• Starch :
• amylose and amylopectin biopolymers consist of glucose building blocks.
• ratio : amylose 20-30 % and 70-80 % amylopectin.
• This ratio determines the fermentation of starch, its viscosity,
gelatinisation, retro-gradation.
• Toconvert starch into a compostable Bioplastic compound we need a
formulation which incorporates a vegetable oil derivative, and other
proprietary additives.
