    At Oz Fresh Herbs we’ve been using Bio Plastics Bio film since 2012. We use the 15 and 20um film, 20um lasting a bit longer in summer for our heirloom tomatoes that we plant in September and finish up in April. We also use large quantities of film for our edible flower and herbs, both fields grown and under crop cover protection.

    We have been using the Aussie made biofilm supplied to us by AUSTALIAN BIO-PLASTISC since October 2022. WOW! what a God send. We haven't had to change our laying machinery, or go to any extra expense. The really big benefit is at end of crop cycle. We simply plough it in. 
How easy is that!

    Despite it being more expensive up front and after me putting in my pickup and disposal costs, it is actually cheaper than the traditional PE film. If you hire cartage contractors and pay the tip fees, it works out to be far more expensive. Save yourself heaps of work, time, expense, and you're doing your bit for the environment.

    Product is much thicker than and stronger than the industry standard silage. wrapper ran smoothly, silage bales have held perfectly and are storing longer with the help of this new biodegradable product.

  • Frequently Asked Questions

    Our FAQ section is designed to provide clear, concise
    answers to the most common queries.

  • What is Mater-bi™ ABP Agricultural Mulch Film?

    Mater-Bi™ is an innovative family of bioplastics, that uses components obtained from plants, such as cellulose, glycerin, natural fillers and non-GMO starch obtained from various crops. Mater-Bi™ comes in granular form, and is processed to create products similar to those of traditional plastics, but are biodegradable and compostable (AS4736-2006, UNI EN 13432).

  • Are starch ingredients obtained from GMOs to produce Mater-Bi™?

    Mater-Bi™ is made sourcing and using only non GMO natural raw materials (such as starch). Whenever, the GMO origin cannot be excluded because additives are sourced in markets and geographical areas where GMO organisms are already grown, Novamont takes part to off-set programs in order to assure the growth of non-GMO crops proportionally to the additives.

  • How may I recognise a biodegradable agricultural mulch film?

    Biodegradable logo is certificated according to biodegradability and compostability certifications, based on international standard such as EN13432-2002, AS 4736-2006, ASTM  D6400 and D6868, ISO 17088 and ISO 18606. 

  • Is Biodegradable Fim more expensive than Polyeurethene Film?

    Up front the initial cost of Biodegradable Film is more expensive. It evens out at end of crop cycle. Saving you Time, Money and the environment.
