The Bamboo Press 10: Compostable Compendium I

Updated: May 11, 2023


Island Leaf Commodities is very happy to be a mandated seller for Lastic Bamboo Resin and Products.
Lastic: The Best Plastic Substitute

We're absolutely, 100% thrilled to publish the tenth edition of The Bamboo Press! It feels like it was only a couple weeks ago when we published the first edition of The Bamboo Press (which was actually during the first week of May 2022)! The dictum "time flies when you're having fun" fully applies to our situation.


After crafting ten short-form, Lastic-informing blogs, we've garnered heaps of interest. Several North American buyers have approached us, a few of our Asian contacts have expressed keen interest, and we continue to fill our planners with Zoom and in-person meetings.


Many contacts have discovered informative value after reading The Bamboo Press. Thus, for our first double-digit entry, we'd like to take the time to reflect on some major points raised in our compendium of Lastic blogs.


We've described Lastic Bamboo Resin's many benefits in great detail. Manufacturers can use this certified biodegradable plastic substitute to replace PLA and PP to make high-quality utensils, straws, food boxes, and more. We wrote extensively about Lastic's bioplastic-made applications as well.


We've also delved into some of our competitors, including those who make single-use products from PLA and bagasse straws. We concluded that while both of these materials have some advantages, such as bagasse's ability to compost and PLA's usefulness in medical applications, both bagasse and PLA have many disadvantages.


What goes into Lastic Bamboo Resin? One prominent ingredient is bamboo, but another critical ingredient is bio-based PBS, one of the market's only certified biodegradable and compostable plastic substitutes. Because Lastic compounds bamboo with bio-based PBS, the resulting Lastic Bamboo Resin has a wide array of applications.


Moving forward, we'll tackle some practical aspects that Lastic Bamboo Resin and Product purchasers can expect when placing an order. First, what products can they purchase? What samples will Lastic send to end buyers? And finally, how does pricing work?


Island Leaf Commodities is absolutely floored to continue publishing The Bamboo Press. For those interested in Lastic Bamboo Resin and products, visit our website: www.islandleaf.co. Additionally, we're very active on LinkedIn, and you can follow us here. The future is incredibly bright!
