HOL Group is proud to launch its new biodegradable material, Candee, first shown at the 2024 Visual Merchandising & Display Show. This ground-breaking material is 100% biodegradable without any treatment, 100% vegan, non-toxic and made in the UK. Candee, once returned to the environment will disappear within two years leaving only carbon dioxide, biomass and water.
What we do:
We replace oil-based plastics that break down into micro plastics with plant-based polymers that will biodegrade, becoming carbon dioxide and water.
Candee is launching several products to replace fossil fuel plastic – so far, they are biodegradable coat hangers, extruded sheets for printing, and a 3D printable material for mannequins and POS; more products are planned from this patent pending material:
- unique new material
- blend of plant-based polymers
- biodegrades to carbon dioxide, biomass and water
- time-initiated biodegradation appropriate to product requirements.
- replaces fossil fuel based plastics
- replaces PLA based plastics
Why we do it:
To reduce the volume of fossil fuel plastics used in the retail industry.
What are the possibilities?
Hangers, large scale print and 3D printing are our current focusses in the retail industry but we’re always looking for new and innovative ways to apply Candee. The possibilities are endless, join the sustainability revolution!
