Bio Materials

Poly Glycolic Acid (PGA) is a biodegradable plastic that has excellent 

gas barrier properties and mechanical properties. In addition to materials for 

suturing, shale oil and gas extraction, its application is expanding to 

food packaging films that require barrier properties.

Advanced Materials & Chemicals Co., Ltd. is supplying PGA to the Korean market 

in collaboration with world-class suppliers. It has soil, ocean, and home 

biodegradation certification and is complete with food contact-related approval.
