Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What is the minimum order quantity (MOQ) for compostable stretch film wholesale?
A: Standard MOQ starts from 1,000 kg for standard sizes. For custom orders (custom sizes, colors, or custom packaging), MOQ is typically 2,000–5,000 kg depending on specifications. Sample orders available for quality testing.

Q2: What certifications does your compostable stretch film hold?
A: Our compostable stretch film is certified under TUV Austria (EN 13432), ASTM D6400, OK Compost Industrial, and ISO 9001:2015 — covering US and EU market compliance. Full documentation available upon request.

Q3: Can this film be used on automated stretch-wrap machines?
A: Yes. Our film is designed to work on most standard manual and automated stretch-wrap equipment. Simply adjust the tension (typically increase it, as our film is highly elastic) and wrap as usual. No equipment modifications required.

Q4: Is this film as strong as traditional plastic stretch film?
A: Yes. Our compostable stretch film delivers puncture resistance, tensile strength, and load-holding force comparable to conventional poly stretch film. It is engineered for industrial-grade performance — tested in real-world warehouse conditions.

Q5: What is the difference between biodegradable and compostable stretch film?
A: Biodegradable film breaks down naturally over time but may leave residues. Compostable film breaks down completely under specific composting conditions (90–180 days) into H₂O, CO₂, and organic biomass — leaving NO toxic residue. Our film is certified compostable.

Q6: What is your lead time for bulk orders?
A: Standard lead time: 15–20 days for bulk orders depending on volume and customization. Sample orders: 3–7 days. Expedited options available — contact us for urgent requirements.

Q7: Can I get a sample before bulk order?
A: Yes. We offer free existing samples (you pay shipping) or custom samples (small setup fee). Sample lead time: 3–7 days.

Q8: What payment terms do you accept?
A: T/T (bank transfer), L/C at sight, and for qualified regular customers, partial deposit with balance against B/L copy.

Q9: How should this film be stored?
A: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and high humidity. Shelf life is approximately 12 months under proper storage conditions.

Q10: How does the cost compare to traditional plastic stretch film?
A: Our compostable stretch film is typically 20-40% higher in material cost than conventional poly stretch film. However, with plastic bag bans expanding to include packaging films in many jurisdictions, switching to certified compostable stretch film helps avoid compliance penalties, meets corporate sustainability targets, and enhances your brand’s environmental positioning — making it a strategic investment rather than a pure cost.
