Pello Bio book foil
Bio-based book foil
Reinforce and protect book covers, maps, folders, labels, etc. with versatile film made from renewable recourses.
Soft and easy to apply and can be used on almost all surfaces.
The self-adhesive, glossy protection film is made of bio-based plastic (75% sugar cane) and water-based acrylic adhesive.
Repositionable with permanent but delayed adhesion. Allows minor corrections to be made before setting.
The squared backing paper makes it easy to cut to size and is made of siliconized (solvent-free) paper with water-based ink.
UV stabilized.
LDPE is less heat resistant than normal PVC foil. However, the fact that books are usually stored and read in comfortable temperature conditions make Pello Bio the book foil of the future (see LDPE versus PVC test report under downloads for more information).

What is bio-based plastic?
Bio-polyethylene (also known as renewable polyethylene) is polyethylene made of ethanol, which becomes ethylene after a dehydration process. It can be manufactured from various raw materials e.g. sugar cane, sugar beet and wheat grains.
Benefits
One of the most important environmental benefits of bio-polyethylene is that it “binds” approx. 2.15 tons of carbon dioxide per ton of green polyethylene produced. The carbon dioxide is absorbed by the sugar cane as it grows, minus carbon dioxide emitted by the production process.
Plastic made from biomass is a climate-friendly solution, as it is CO2-neutral as opposed to plastic made from oil and gas.
