PLA (Polylactic Acid) bottles represent a significant advancement in the fight against plastic pollution. Unlike traditional petroleum-based plastics, PLA is derived from renewable plant resources, making it a more eco-friendly option. These bottles are compostable, meaning they break down naturally, reducing landfill waste. They are also recyclable and can be burned cleanly, offering multiple end-of-life disposal options that are less harmful to the environment.
Our mission is to address one of the world’s most significant pollutants: the petroleum-based plastic bottle. PLA bottles, particularly those for juices and milk, are the next step in reducing the environmental footprint of single-use plastics. While some of our plant-based preforms are still under development, we are excited about the progress and eager to share more.

We are PLA bottles EU
At PLA Bottles EU, we’re dedicated to minimizing our environmental impact by replacing petroleum-based products like bottles, straws, and utensils with eco-friendly alternatives. Our compostable preforms are crafted from non-GMO, plant-based resins such as PLA and PHA, making them a truly sustainable choice.
Our PLA bottles offer versatile disposal options, including industrial composting, recycling, incineration, and even digestion alongside food waste. We are also developing closed-loop systems that enable the collection and proper processing of empty bottles and caps, reducing transportation needs and waste disposal costs.
In collaboration with bottlers, we’re bringing our bottles to market filled with premium water, providing consumers with the finest water in the world, packaged in the most planet-friendly bottle available. By choosing PLA over fossil-based plastics, we’re not only lowering our carbon footprint but also fostering a circular economy and contributing to the creation of plastic-free environments.
Join us in making a positive difference for the planet!

PLA does not create persistent microplastics
First findings from a new meta-study conducted by HYDRA Marine Sciences on PLA in the environment found that in contrast to non-biodegradable polymers, PLA will eventually fully hydrolyze and biodegrade, meaning no persistent particles should remain and accumulate in the environment.
In recent years, there has been increasing concern about the environmental and health risks of nano- and microplastics. Everything in the natural world, whether organic or inorganic, breaks down over time. Plants biodegrade into
humus, which ultimately mineralizes into carbon dioxide and water, closing the natural cycles. However, when synthetic materials like conventional, non-biodegradable plastics wear down, they produce persistent nano and microplastics that are out of place in the natural environment.
There is rightful concern over the impact of synthetic, persistent microplastics, with questions being asked about the implications of their chemistry, potential toxicity, and long-term fate in the environment. As we begin to understand
microplastics’ effects on human and environmental health, biobased and compostable polymers like polylactic acid (PLA) are increasingly viewed as a
more sustainable long-term alternative.

We use bioplastics for our PLA bottles
- BIO-BASED OR PARTIALLY BIO-BASED NON-BIODEGRADABLE PLASTICS, SUCH AS BIO-BASED PE, PP, OR PET (SO-CALLED DROP-INS) AND BIO-BASED TECHNICAL PERFORMANCE POLYMERS, SUCH AS PTT OR TPC-ET;
- PLASTICS THAT ARE BOTH BIO-BASED AND BIODEGRADABLE, SUCH AS PLA AND PHA OR PBS;
- PLASTICS THAT ARE BASED ON FOSSIL RESOURCES AND ARE BIODEGRADABLE, SUCH AS PBAT.
PLA is the bio-plastic that we use for our plant-based bottles, caps, and labels. PLA is one of the bioplastics that has the highest volume of production and is the most widespread bio-plastic in the industry. Our PLA bottles are made from sugarcane and are NON-GMO.
