09/18/2014
Cardia Bioplastics Limited is setting up its own film and bag manufacturing plant in São Paulo (Brazil) and production commencement is scheduled for September 2014. The new factory is expected to deliver a production capacity of 500 million retail carry bags per year. This capacity is over four times greater than that of the current Cardia Bioplastics manufacturing plant in Nanjing, China.
Cardia Bioplastics Managing Director Dr. Frank Glatz stated, “We have seen strong growth in demand for Cardia Biohybrid™ bags – environmentally preferred bags that use less oil, have a lower carbon footprint and are heavy metal free.”
The vertical integration from Cardia Biohybrid™ resins to Cardia Biohybrid™ films and bags ensures product quality, control of supply, improved margins and enhanced cost structures that underpin Cardia’s global growth strategy. |
