Sustainability
Sustainability isn't just a feature of our products, it's the foundation of our business.
At NextGen Bioplastics, we're dedicated to building the circular economy by crafting innovative packaging solutions that minimize the environmental and health impacts of traditional petroleum-based plastics. With the packaging industry being one of the top contributors to plastic pollution globally, we have a responsibility to do better and an opportunity to make a significant impact. We're driven to redefine single-use food packaging with truly biodegradable solutions. Our compostable, plant-based bioplastic products are meaningful steps towards closing the loop on single-use plastic waste by utilizing renewable resources.

The Plastic Problem: Why We're Taking Action

A Threat to Our Health
Microplastics are showing up in our foods and water systems. The long-term health impacts are still to be seen, but links are suspected between microplastics and cancer, respiratory impairments, and other major health issues. It's time we remove toxic packaging from our daily life.

A Burden to The Planet
Petroleum-based plastics can take up to 1200 years to decompose, generating greenhouse gas emissions that threaten wildlife habitat, damage marine ecosystems, and degrade our air quality.

A Sustainable Path Forward
Innovative Plant-Based Bioplastics
NextGen Bioplastics offers innovative, plant-based alternatives to traditional plastics. Our proprietary biopolymers replace LDPE and PP resins, delivering eco-friendly solutions for blown film extrusion, thermoforming, and injection molding. We combine cutting-edge technology with decades of manufacturing expertise to drive the transition to sustainable materials.
Using hemp and other plant-infused biopolymers, we create durable and versatile packaging for the food services industry, including to-go containers, cutlery, water bottles, and more. Our products are designed to be fully compostable within 2 months, helping to reduce landfill waste and reliance on fossil fuels.
Local Renewable Resources
We proudly source our hemp and other plant materials from local Pennsylvania farms, creating a sustainable circular economy that strengthens both our community and environment. Our partnerships with local farms support agriculture while reducing carbon emissions from transportation. Hemp is naturally resilient and grows quickly with minimal water requirements, making it an ideal crop for sustainable manufacturing. This local sourcing approach completes a regenerative cycle: Pennsylvania-grown agriculture become NextGen's plant-based packaging, which then returns to soil through composting.
