Ingeo biopolymer AW 240D, a NatureWorks LLC product, is a thermoplastic resin derived from annually renewable resources and is specifically designed for use in food service ware applications. Ingeo AW 240D is an opaque, off-white extrusion grade that is fully formulated to be used naturally, but may be blended with color compounds. This grade processes readily on conventional extrusion equipment, at low melt temperatures. Extruded roll stock is thermoformable.
