Sincdoo Biotech Co., Ltd. is a subsidiary of the ZB Group, specializing in the research and application of polylactic acid (PLA) products. ZB Group is a large apparel manufacturing company in China, providing OEM services to numerous well-known brands in various fields, including suits, sportswear, casual wear, outerwear, coats, underwear, children’s clothing, and home textiles. In addition, ZB Group also develops specialty fabrics for specific applications.
As a subsidiary of ZB Group, Sincdoo is committed to the development and application of sustainable, biodegradable products. Leveraging ZB Group’s strong design and supply capabilities, we offer innovative solutions and high-quality products in the fields of PLA fibers for clothing, PLA daily products, and PLA medical supplies.
Raw Material Procurement:
While most biodegradable materials on the market are derived from staple crops, Sincdoo is dedicated to selecting higher-quality, more responsible raw materials for PLA. We prioritize the procurement of raw materials that have minimal impact on food supply, such as straw, sugarcane, and a small amount of genetically modified corn, which are used for fermentation to produce PLA. These materials are often agricultural by-products or high-yield crops that do not significantly affect global food supplies. Additionally, the by-products of fermentation can be used for the production of other products.
This raw material procurement strategy not only reduces competition for food resources but also adheres to sustainable development principles, promoting environmental protection and resource efficiency. Sincdoo hopes to contribute to global food security and ecological balance while promoting PLA products.
Technological Innovation and R&D Capabilities:
PLA modified Granular Products: We collaborate with internationally renowned PLA resin companies, such as NatureWorks, Total Energies, Haizheng Bio, and Fengyuan, to customize modified PLA raw materials for different applications based on specific product characteristics.
PLA Fiber: We offer both short fibers and long fibers made from PLA. Through upgrades in production lines and improvements in weaving techniques, we produce high-quality, versatile fabrics. We provide 100% PLA fabrics, and based on customer requirements, we also offer blended fabrics to suit different usage environments, helping more enterprises achieve carbon reduction goals. For example, we replace polyester fibers with PLA fibers, greatly reducing the use of petroleum-based products. Our PLA and wool blended fabric ensures stable performance while avoiding the use of cotton and petroleum-based materials, as well as reducing the amount of wool used, ultimately improving animal welfare and environmental protection. In addition, Sincdoo offers blended fabrics made from organic cotton and RWS-certified wool to meet customer demands in various regions. We support customers with OEM solutions to produce PLA fabrics and finished clothing products.
PLA Daily Products: We provide customized PLA products, including daily necessities (knife,fork,spoon,cups, etc.)and 3D printing materials, and can add coffee grounds or rice husks to create unique appearances and enhance the environmental effects.
PLA Medical Field: We offer disposable PLA products for hospitals, such as medical sheets and white coats.
Automotive and Building Materials: We also develop various eco-friendly products that incorporate PLA materials, aiming to minimize environmental pollution and help related enterprises reduce carbon emissions.
Sincdoo’s Certifications and Team
We provide various certifications, including DIN, TÜV, BPI, and others. Sincdoo has a professional R&D and design team, collaborating with well-known research institutions and universities to jointly develop high-quality products. Our designers come from globally recognized apparel companies and are capable of providing customized, high-quality product development solutions in partnership with customers.
Sincdoo PLA Recycling Solutions
Due to differences in regional policies, not all areas are equipped for biological composting and degradation. Therefore, we provide several PLA recycling solutions:
Composting: In areas with composting facilities, customers can directly compost and degrade PLA products.
Recycling and Reuse: We cooperate with recyclers in China to recycle PLA products, crush and extrude them into flooring materials used in interior and exterior decoration.
Incineration: In regions with electricity shortages, PLA products completely combust to produce water and carbon dioxide, significantly reducing environmental pollution compared to chemical products.
Enzymatic Degradation: Sincdoo has partnered with XIKE Enzyme to develop enzyme preparations that accelerate the degradation of PLA, aiming to further demonstrate PLA’s advantages in the biodegradable field.
*Research has shown that PLA, even when decomposing slowly in the natural environment, will not result in microplastic hazards.

環保友好
PLA 是可生物降解的,意味著它可以在工業堆肥設施中分解為水和二氧化碳,顯著減少環境影響。與傳統的石油基塑料相比,PLA 的生產和分解排放的溫室氣體更少,有助於緩解氣候變化的影響。此外,PLA 的降解過程不會產生有害的微塑料,這對保護水生和土壤環境至關重要。
-
可再生資源
PLA 來源於玉米澱粉、甘蔗等作物,這些都是可再生資源。這與從有限化石燃料生產的傳統塑料形成鮮明對比。利用可再生資源不僅有助於減少對化石燃料的依賴,還促進了可持續農業,為農業副產品創造新價值。

應用的多樣性
PLA 優秀的物理和化學性能使其廣泛應用於各個領域,包括包裝材料、一次性餐具、紡織品、醫療用品和3D打印材料。這種多樣性使PLA成為滿足不同產業對環保材料需求的高度靈活材料。PLA的多樣應用展示了其在促進環境可持續性和支持綠色經濟增長方面的巨大潛力。
The Sustainable Lifecycle of Polylactic Acid (PLA)
Polylactic Acid (PLA) is a groundbreaking sustainable material that demonstrates a complete circular lifecycle. Derived from renewable resources such as straw, corn starch, and sugarcane, PLA is processed into versatile products that, after use, naturally degrade through composting into organic fertilizer, water, and carbon dioxide. This eco-friendly cycle reduces waste, protects the environment, and contributes to a greener and more sustainable future.
關於聚乳酸 (PLA) 的常見問題
為什麼 PLA 被認為是環保的?
PLA 被認為是環保的,因為它來源於如玉米澱粉或甘蔗等可再生資源,這些資源在生長過程中吸收CO2,減少溫室氣體排放。此外,PLA 在適當條件下能完全生物降解,減少長期環境污染。
如果 PLA 被意外丟棄在環境中,對健康和環境有什麼影響?
相比傳統塑料,PLA 因其可生物降解性,不會在環境中持續存在並產生微塑料,從而降低對環境和人體健康的潛在危害。
PLA 的生物降解性是如何實現的?
PLA 的生物降解性是在工業堆肥環境的高溫和高濕條件下,特定分子鏈斷裂,最終分解為二氧化碳和水。這需要特定的堆肥設施。
應用 PLA 的優勢
PLA 的應用優勢在於其多樣性和可定制性。它可用於製造包裝材料、一次性餐具、服裝產品、耐用商品、生物醫療產品,甚至汽車內飾產品。通過添加不同的添加劑,PLA 還可以提高耐熱性或改變其生物降解率,以滿足各種領域的需求。
PLA 與其他生物塑料的不同之處
相比其他生物塑料,PLA 在生物降解性、原材料來源和生產過程的環境影響方面通常表現更好。PLA 的原材料主要是農作物,這使其在減少對化石燃料依賴方面具有明顯優勢。
使用 PLA 產品在安全和健康方面的優勢
PLA 產品在安全和健康方面提供了多項顯著優勢,尤其是在食品包裝和容器以及嬰幼兒產品中:
- 不釋放有害物質:PLA 由天然可再生資源製成,不含對人體健康有負面影響的有害雙酚 A (BPA) 或其他化學物質。相反,一些傳統塑料在接觸食物或暴露於熱量時可能會釋放有害物質。
- 生物相容性:由於其生物基質性質,PLA 更適合人體,在醫療領域廣泛使用,如可生物降解的縫線和藥物傳輸系統,這表明 PLA 被認為對人體的毒性風險較低。
- 降低長期暴露風險:由於 PLA 是可生物降解的,使用它可以減少環境中微塑料的積累,從而減少人們通過食物鏈間接暴露於微塑料的風險。長期暴露於微塑料被認為可能對健康有不利影響。特別是在嬰兒玩具中,由於嬰兒的咀嚼習慣,可以防止嬰兒攝入塑料並對身體造成傷害。
- 更安全的廢物處理:PLA 產品的可生物降解性質意味著它們在適當的處理條件下可以完全分解,減少在廢物處理過程中釋放有害化學物質的風險。
