PHA Solutions for Diverse Applications
About PHA
Make a Difference with Sustainable PHA Bioplastics.
Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) are a unique material. Derived from nature and produced sustainably, they can be used as building blocks replacing and improving the functional characteristics of a broad range of polymers in the production of finished goods or as starting points for sustainable chemistry.
Products
PHA Product Portfolio
A comprehensive range of PHA materials designed to meet specific processing, performance, and sustainability requirements across industries and applications.
Neat PHA Resins
We manufacture semi-crystalline and amorphous PHAs by modifying the P3HB and P4HB ratios of our materials. Our unique neat resins can be purchased for use in your custom compounds and formulations.
Masterbatches
We offer a portfolio of PHA-based masterbatches designed to allow customers the flexibility to control blending ratios into compounds that will enhance performance and processing attributes tailored to specific applications. Our masterbatches are supplied in concentrated pellet form of amorphous PHA blended with scPHA, PLA, or PBAT.
Compounds
Our PHACT™ PHA compounds are ready-made solutions for producing food packaging, nonwovens, and food serviceware applications with enhanced sustainability and performance attributes. PHACT PHA compounds can be used in common plastics and fibers conversion technologies.

CJ Biomaterials is the biomaterials division of CJ CheilJedang, producing PHACT branded PHA biopolymers at commercial scale.
CJ Biomaterials produces PHA biopolymers and related basic chemicals using fermentation based biotechnology. Building on decades of experience in food and biotechnology, the company uses bioscience, chemical engineering, materials innovation, and applications development to manufacture PHA solutions at scale for global markets.
Packaging, food serviceware, agriculture, personal care and consumer goods are the most common, wherever a persistent plastic can be replaced.
PHA breaks down in soil, industrial compost and marine environments, so it does not persist as microplastic at end of life.
They shorten the time a discarded product remains in the environment, which reduces accumulation in landfill and waterways.
