Avoid bottling valuable (organic) oils in conventional bottles based on petroleum plastic. In contrast to PET bottles or rPET bottles, NaKu organic bottles are made from plants and lactic acid. They therefore do not contain any harmful plasticizers such as bisphenol A, phthalates or antimony and are made of 100% bioplastic (PLA/rPLA).
While crude oil is becoming increasingly scarce and expensive, natural, rapidly renewable plant resources offer an important source of raw materials for sustainable oil bottle production.
NaKu Bio bottles are also compostable according to DIN 13432! Unlike PET or rPET, these bottles do not produce permanent, harmful microplastics when they decompose.1In addition, the NaKu PLA/rPLA bottles made from natural plastic are 7% lighter than conventional bottles made from petroleum plastic! Therefore, in addition to all other environmentally friendly aspects, COXNUMX is also saved during transport.2 Compared to glass bottles, this weight advantage has an even greater impact when transporting them, and the space required is also smaller.
The NaKu bottle made from renewable raw materials is available in various standard sizes for cooking oil manufacturers and cooking oil bottlers. If larger quantities are required, production with an individual bottle shape and coloring of the organic bottle is also possible. However, sleeving is also possible for smaller quantities.

NaKu bottles made of bioplastic are not suitable for hot filling due to the natural raw material and are also not dishwasher safe. The maximum operating temperature of the bio bottles is 55°C. In many cases, depending on the contents, wiping or warm washing is sufficient for further use. If this further use is not possible, however, the thermal recycling only produces as much CO2 as the plant absorbed or bound it during growth. This represents another major advantage compared to the thermal recycling of bottles based on petroleum plastic.

Topic Petroleum Plastic Oil Bottles & Health
The infographic "Is there anything greener than rPET?" shows the material comparison between rPET and rPLA. Bottles made of rPLA perform better, especially in the areas of health, raw materials and sustainability.
Topic Pollutants – Benzene
The new study by the University of Vienna also found that the PET bottle releases carcinogenic benzene into the oil over the storage period.
The researchers in this study tested the stored sunflower oil for benzene after 56 days and measured a concentration in the samples stored in PET bottles that is 140 times higher than permitted for drinking water. Recycled PET performed even worse. Benzene is a strong-smelling liquid that is contained in gasoline, for example. Even in small quantities, it poses a health risk because the substance is classified as carcinogenic.
Further research on this topic shows that benzene is already contained in the plastic as part of the PET - but is normally harmlessly bound in the molecule. During the manufacturing process of the PET bottle, the plastic is melted at around 260°C so that it can be shaped. This heat damages the material, causing some of the PET molecules to split, allowing the previously bound benzene to be released. The now unbound benzene is then dissolved out of the plastic over the storage period and remains in the oil. It is obvious why recycled PET performs even worse: it is exposed to the melting heat a second time during recycling, whereby impurities such as PVC cause the formation of benzene.1 can support even further.
In comparison to the PET bottle, the NaKu bottle tested in this study is made of completely natural materials (sugar as the raw material), which is why no harmful substances can be released from the bottle.
1According to the study, one liter of oil contains as much benzene as one would inhale through more than four cigarettes.

The advantages of bottles made from natural, plant-based raw materials for edible oil bottling
120% sustainable – plant-based raw materials
Is more than 100% sustainability possible? The new NaKu bottle made of PLA/bioplastic achieves exactly that: 100% plant-based raw materials plus 20% recycled PLA.
Pollutant-free – benzene-free
The NaKu bottle is made of completely natural materials, which is why no harmful substances such as benzene can be released from the bottle. It also does not contain any plasticizers such as bisphenol A, phthalates or antimony.
Microplastic free
When the NaKu PLA/rPLA bottle rots, no permanent microplastics are created.
Compostable
The NaKu PLA/rPLA bottle is compostable according to DIN 13432.
Storage
The lifespan of the NaKu PLA/rPLA bottle is the same as that of a normal PET bottle. In order to decompose, it needs an environment like that in a compost or an industrial composting plant (DIN 13432).
Weight saving
The NaKu PLA/rPLA bottle is 7% lighter than conventional plastic! This also reduces CO2 saved.

Yes, our bottles are not for hot filling The maximum operating temperature is 55 ° C.
Recycling and the circular economy are crucial topics for our future. We are often asked how renewable and recyclable materials are treated in the recycling process and how a recycling process can actually work.
