Moorim received official certification for its 100% bio-degradable product. The product is a recently developed environment-friendly water-soluble coating product. The latest certification, the first to have been granted in Korea, has once again confirmed the status of Moorim as a paper manufacturer leading the move towards more environment-friendly products. In March, the company also received the certification of ‘OK compost’ issued by TUV AUSTRIA, one of Europe’s leading testing and certification institutions. ‘OK compost’ is an international environmental certification that is granted after conducting tests and confirming that everyday waste or industrial waste are not toxic to the environment but are bio-degradable within a certain period of time.
The ‘OK compost’ certification was given to Moorim’s ‘Neoforêt CUP’, which is a type of paper used in manufacturing disposable paper cups with water-soluble coating fluid, the only product with this feature offered by a Korean paper manufacturer. As the product has now been officially proven to be bio-degradable within 45 days, Moorim is now in talks with convenience stores and large supermarket chains to supply the product.
With the certification that proves the bio-degradability of its products, Moorim has also launched the Neoforêt brand for environment-friendly products to further grow the market. The brand’s name symbolizes a ‘renewed return to nature’ and features paper straws, paper cups and paper packaging material that can replace products for a more environment-friendly impact.
