Product Info Keyring & Shopping cart chips

Product safety information on key rings and shopping cart chips from PLA

Production process and material description: Our key rings and shopping cart chips are used with a lot of love and modern technology FDM-3D-Printing process for polylactide (PLA) manufactured. FDM stands for “Fused Deposition Modeling”, which means about as much as “Creating a small masterpiece layer by layer”. In this procedure, the PLA-Filament heated, melted and precisely brought into the desired shape – this creates robust, lightweight and long-lasting everyday helpers.

PLA – The environmental friend among the plastics: Unlike conventional plastics based on petroleum PLA a real nature friend. This material is obtained from renewable raw materials such as corn starch or sugar cane – so to speak from plant power! A fermentative process produces lactic acid, which is then polymerised to polylactide. The best of it? PLA is biodegradable and leaves no plastic waste that takes centuries to decompose. Instead, it goes – under the right conditions – back into the cycle of nature. A True Cycle of Good!

Why is PLA the better choice?

• Sustainable: Instead of plundering finite resources PLA on renewable raw materials.
• Biodegradable: While conventional plastic dwells forever on Earth PLA decay under industrial composting conditions within a few months.
• Lesser CO₂-Balance sheet: The production of PLA causes less CO₂-Emissions as classic plastics.
• Odor-neutral: No unpleasant plastic smell – on the contrary, PLA has even a slightly sweet scent.

Heat resistance and instructions for use: So environmentally friendly PLA it also has a small weakness: heat! Already from about 50–60 °C the material begins to deform. This means that your fan PLA-Keyring or shopping cart chip in the hot car or near a radiator can develop a rather soft mind. Please do not take me to the sauna – PLA it's cool, but it's not heat resistant!

Conclusion: With our PLA-with printed key rings and shopping cart chips, you opt for a sustainable, environmentally friendly alternative to conventional plastic products. They are not only practical and durable, but also actively contribute to the protection of our planet. A small accessory with great effect – and a touch of plant magic!
