What is BioRenew 30 Matt Lamination Film?
BioRenew 30 Matt is a biaxially oriented polypropylene film with a super matt surface and a pre-applied thermal adhesive.
Its renewable feedstock comes from vegetable oils that have already served their original purpose, such as waste cooking oil. These materials are processed into raw materials suitable for producing new polymers.
The film delivers the appearance and processing performance expected from a conventional matt laminate, with renewable resources introduced through a certified supply chain.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does the “30” in BioRenew 30 mean?
It identifies the 30% renewable feedstock attributed to manufacture through a certified mass balance system.
What is mass balance?
Mass balance tracks renewable inputs through a production system where renewable and conventional materials may be processed together. It allocates the renewable contribution to specified products, rather than measuring a separate renewable fraction in each individual roll.
Can it be spot UV coated or hot foil stamped?
Yes. The film is compatible with these processes. Suitable consumables and production settings should be confirmed through trials.
Can it be used for double-sided lamination?
Yes. The manufacturer identifies this film as suitable for two-sided lamination applications.
