CERTIFICATIONS
Certifications explained
EN 13432 — EU Compostability Standard
The harmonised European standard: 90%+ biodegradation within 6 months, plus disintegration and ecotoxicity limits. The basis for EU compostability claims.
OK Compost INDUSTRIAL — TÜV Austria
Industrial-compostability mark: verified to biodegrade at 58°C+ in managed facilities within 90–180 days. 100% PLA is industrial-compostable only — see limitations.
OEM / ODM
Customization Options
Custom width from 20cm to 60cm. Custom roll lengths from 100m to 600m. Core diameter options: 25mm, 38mm, 50mm. Custom printing on film edge or core label. MOQ 500 kg for custom production.
FACTORY CAPABILITIES
Esinle OEM Capabilities
The selected format can be reviewed against these Guangzhou manufacturing capabilities. Final feasibility, tolerances and MOQ are confirmed in the approved specification.
Custom Dimensions
Width, gusset depth and length can be reviewed against your packaging-line requirements and converting limits.
Printing & Branding
Flexographic artwork, colour count, print coverage and plate requirements are checked before MOQ and pricing are confirmed.
In-House Compounding
PLA, PBAT and starch blend options are selected around flexibility, strength, processing and the documented claim required for the SKU.
BEHIND EVERY PRODUCT
Integrated production in Guangzhou
The workflow covers compounding, film blowing, printing and bag conversion, with the order specification used as the reference for in-process and final checks.
USE CASES
Applications
Commercial Kitchens & Catering
Primary cling film for food prep, plating, and cold storage — standard roll format fits existing kitchen workflows without training or equipment changes
Supermarket Fresh Departments
Wrapping fresh produce, cheese, deli items, and bakery goods in certified-compostable film — meets municipal organics diversion requirements
Food Processing & Co-Packing
Continuous wrapping for production lines — 300m roll length minimizes downtime for roll changes in high-throughput operations
HONEST TRANSPARENCY
Limitations & Storage
Not suitable for microwave reheating or hot food wrapping above 50°C — PLA softens above its glass transition temperature (~55–60°C). For hot food applications, consider our heat-stabilized products. Industrial compostable only — PLA alone does not meet OK Compost HOME requirements due to slower ambient-temperature degradation kinetics. Maximum cling performance at 20–30°C; cling decreases significantly below 5°C.
FAQ
Frequently asked questions
How does PLA cling film compare to PVC in terms of cling and stretch?
At equivalent gauge (12μm), ESINLE's PLA cling film achieves 85–90% of PVC cling strength and approximately 95% of PVC elongation at break. For most food service applications — wrapping bowls, covering trays, bundling produce — the difference is not noticeable in daily use. For applications requiring maximum cling (meat wrapping, very irregular shapes), consider our PLA+PBAT blend (ES-CF-04) which achieves cling parity with PVC.
Is PLA cling film safe for direct food contact?
Yes. PLA is FDA-approved for food contact (21 CFR 175.300) and meets EU Regulation 10/2011 for plastic food contact materials. Unlike PVC film, our PLA formulation contains no plasticizers that could migrate into food — the cling property is an inherent material characteristic, not an additive effect.
What composting certification does this product carry?
EN 13432 (OK Compost INDUSTRIAL) certified by TUV Austria. Industrial composting degrades the film within 90–180 days at 58°C+. For home compost certification, our PLA+PBAT blend (ES-CF-04) passes OK Compost HOME due to the lower glass transition temperature of the PBAT component enabling ambient-temperature enzymatic activity.
