Kaposplast’s Message: The Bristles of the Future is Durable nut Environmentally Friendly
For over seven decades, Kaposplast Ltd has become a truly innovative, environmentally conscious, sustainable and competitive company in the field of brush filaments industry.
Rethink the Future
Kaposplast’s diverse product portfolio includes an extensive range of bristles such as PP, PET, PA, PE, PBT, PS and SAN. Yet, the company’s latest breakthrough marks a bold step toward a greener future: the introduction of PLA filament — a biodegradable, bio-based and energy-efficient alternative to conventional plastic filaments. Ideal for companies with environmental goals such as reducing their carbon footprint.
Why PLA Filament Matters
PLA is a biodegradable thermoplastic made from renewable resources such as corn starch. It is one of the most commonly used bioplastics today. It is produced by fermenting plant starch to make lactic acid, which is then polymerized to form polylactic acid.
In essence, Kaposplast PLA filament replaces petroleum-based plastics with a renewable, planet-friendly resource – proving that performance and sustainability can go hand in hand.
