[Asia Economy Reporter Eunmo Koo] Bio-specialized compounding company CJ HDC Biosol announced on the 24th that it has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) to establish a sustainable ecosystem and resource-circulating economy through the development of eco-friendly bio-packaging and strengthened business cooperation with bottled water company Sansu Beverage. CJ HDC Biosol is a bio-plastic compounding specialist company jointly established by HDC Hyundai EP and CJ CheilJedang.


Through the agreement, the two companies will promote the development of replacing the PET bottle material of Sansu Beverage's bottled water distributed domestically with 100% bio-based materials. They will also promote the expanded use of eco-friendly bio-packaging instead of disposable products used in domestic hotels, resorts, and outdoor events.


Jung Joong-kyu, CEO of CJ HDC Biosol, stated, "Facing the new era challenge of carbon neutrality, we will combine Sansu Beverage's rich experience in challenges and processing technology know-how with Biosol's accumulated bio-compounding technological capabilities to create synergy in eco-friendly business."



CJ HDC Biosol plans to complete a compounding factory with an annual capacity of 11,000 tons by October by combining CJ CheilJedang's bio-material capabilities such as mass-produced biodegradable materials aPHA, PLA, PBAT, cellulose, and HDC Hyundai EP's technological competitiveness.
