The Philippines is currently witnessing a massive paradigm shift in its industrial and commercial sectors regarding plastic consumption. As an archipelago deeply affected by marine plastic pollution, the Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) and various Local Government Units (LGUs) from Metro Manila to Davao City have implemented stringent regulations against single-use plastics. This legislative environment has created a booming demand for Biodegradable Plastic Package Manufacturers and Exporters.
Modern Filipino enterprises, ranging from the thriving e-commerce giants like Shopee and Lazada sellers to the traditional retail hubs in Makati and Bonifacio Global City (BGC), are increasingly seeking PLA (Polylactic Acid) and PBAT-based solutions. These materials offer the durability of traditional plastics with the environmental benefit of being fully compostable under industrial conditions, aligning with the "Philippine Action Plan for Sustainable Consumption and Production."

In the Philippines, the application of biodegradable packaging extends far beyond simple grocery bags. The Agricultural Sector, a cornerstone of the Philippine economy, is now utilizing biodegradable mulch films and banana bags to minimize soil contamination in regions like Northern Mindanao. Our PLA+Pbat Apparel Packages are specifically designed to withstand the humid tropical climate of Southeast Asia while ensuring that garment exports to Europe and the US meet international TUV and EN13432 standards.
Furthermore, the Food & Beverage industry in the Philippines—notably the booming milk tea and "ready-to-eat" delivery market—is transitioning to compostable resealable pouches and stand-up bags. By utilizing corn starch-based resins, we provide packaging that is not only food-safe (complying with GB 9683-1988) but also breaks down naturally, helping reduce the burden on landfills in provinces like Bulacan and Rizal.
For the Philippine Construction industry, our high-capability 50kg polypropylene plastic woven packages offer the necessary tensile strength for cement and mineral transport, while our R&D team works on integrating oxo-biodegradable additives to ensure these heavy-duty bags do not persist in the environment for centuries.
Since 1985, Tongcheng Packaging Materials Co., Ltd. has established itself as a senior professional manufacturer in supplying flexible packaging by international standards. Our products are exported to countries in Europe, America, and Southeast Asia (including the Philippines).
The company covers a total area of 5500 square meters and has 7700 square meters for building. With a registered capital of RMB 11.98 million Yuan and 150 dedicated employees, we utilize state-of-the-art gravure plate making, printing, lamination, and film-blowing technology to deliver premium quality.
The Philippines' "National Plan of Action for the Prevention, Reduction, and Management of Marine Litter" (NPOA-ML) is driving innovation. We see three major trends:
Small consumer goods pouches are moving towards multi-layer biodegradable laminates to reduce the microplastic footprint in rural Filipino barangays.
Manila-based logistics providers are replacing standard poly mailers with Kraft Paper Bubble Mailers and compostable shipping bags to meet CSR goals.
QR code integration on biodegradable bags allows Filipino consumers to scan and verify the compostability certificates (TUV/EN13432), ensuring transparency.
As a premier exporter to the Philippines, we understand that "biodegradable" is often misused. Our engineering focus is on certified compostable materials.
PLA (Polylactic Acid) is a bioplastic derived from renewable resources like corn starch or sugar cane. It is crystal clear and rigid, making it perfect for food containers and windowed bags seen in high-end Makati bakeries. However, PLA can be brittle. To solve this for the heavy-duty needs of Filipino logistics, we blend it with PBAT (Polybutylene Adipate Co-terephthalate).
PBAT is a biodegradable random copolymer that adds flexibility and toughness. This PLA+PBAT blend creates a high-performance material that mimics the feel of LDPE (Low-Density Polyethylene) but disappears in a composting environment within 180 days, leaving no toxic residue. This technology is critical for the Philippines' goal of achieving a Circular Economy.
Shipping across the 7,641 islands of the Philippines requires packaging that can withstand varying pressure, heat, and humidity. Our factory follows the ISO22000 quality control system and GB 9683-1988 strictly. Every batch of film blowing is tested for tensile strength and puncture resistance. This ensures that a package shipped from our facility to a warehouse in Cagayan de Oro arrives in the same pristine condition as it left the production line.
