<strong>Duni</strong> Materials<br />
Here is a quick view of the high-quality,<br />
highly functional materials we use in our<br />
Eating & Drinking range.<br />
(PS) Polystyrene<br />
-4˚C to +80˚C<br />
<strong>Duni</strong>’s most frequently used plastic.<br />
This clear or coloured stiff plastic has<br />
a flawless finish that makes it the<br />
number one choice for food and drink<br />
presentation.<br />
(EPS) Expandable polystyrene<br />
-4˚C to +80˚C<br />
EPS is essentially air-filled polystyrene<br />
for additional lightness. It’s a soft, white<br />
plastic with insulating properties making<br />
it ideal for more low-price outlets that<br />
serve hot and cold drinks.<br />
(CPLA) Crystallized Polylactid acid<br />
0˚C to +80˚C<br />
CPLA is a bio-polymer made of natural and<br />
renewable resources, such as cornstarch.<br />
Unlike many other biopolymers, CPLA is<br />
heat resistant up to 80 degrees, making it<br />
excellent for hot cup lids and cutlery.<br />
Depending on the thickness of the product,<br />
CPLA products may also be <strong>com</strong>postable,<br />
for example the hot cup lids.<br />
Quality<br />
When you choose <strong>Duni</strong>, you are choosing<br />
high-quality products. To make it easier<br />
for you to decide what quality best meets<br />
your needs, we have placed our products<br />
into 3 quality categories using the star<br />
system (see below). Look for the quality<br />
level tag to guide you through the<br />
assortment.<br />
When only the best will do.<br />
Durable and beautiful.<br />
Our symbols<br />
These symbols will provide you with an<br />
instant idea as to the products’ practical<br />
benefits.<br />
Product will not shatter and is<br />
safe to use in any environment.<br />
Product can be heated<br />
in a microwave oven.<br />
(PLA) Polylactic acid<br />
0˚C to +40˚C<br />
<strong>Duni</strong> cold drink cups and lids and some<br />
of our <strong>Duni</strong> ecoecho range salad bowls,<br />
deli food containers and dressing cups<br />
are manufactured using PLA (polylactide),<br />
a plastic made using 100% renewable<br />
materials, such as cornstarch. PLA is<br />
crystal clear and presents fresh food in<br />
its very best light.<br />
(PC) Polycarbonate<br />
-30˚C to +120˚C<br />
Shatter Proof and dishwashable up to<br />
2500 times, Polycarbonate is <strong>Duni</strong>’s<br />
hardest plastic. It’s ideal for environments<br />
where broken glass is normally a hazard,<br />
e.g. pool and spa areas, beachfront bars<br />
etc. And it will outlive most glasses<br />
making it economical too.<br />
The fine balance between good<br />
looks and good value for money.<br />
The big winner when it <strong>com</strong>es<br />
to large events and price is an<br />
important factor.<br />
Product provides excellent<br />
insulation, keeping drinks<br />
hot or cold longer.<br />
Product can be washed<br />
safely in a dishwasher.<br />
(PBS) Polybutylene succinate<br />
0˚C to +90˚C<br />
One of the most advanced biopolymeres.<br />
It has superior barrier and properties like<br />
normal plastics, but it is <strong>com</strong>postable.<br />
