US-Based Masterpiece Cookies Has Selected Ecologic'S Eco-One Additives

US-based Masterpiece Cookies has selected EcoLogic’s Eco-One additives to enhance the biodegradation of plastic containers produced for them by Letica. The company will manufacture plastic containers for their cookie dough with Eco-One to enhance the biodegradability of the plastic package.

Letica director of marketing & sustainability Dan Tafaro said Eco-One provided a solution to deliver an environmental benefit with performance and function that parallels traditional plastic resins, without altering the fit and function of the container.

EcoLogic director of National Accounts Galen Killam said the company will support the launch of the cookie dough container with Masterpiece Cookies.

"This is especially significant as it continues to illustrate Eco-One's high performance characteristics as it relates to food contact applications," Killam said.

The new containers containing Eco-One, an organic additive will be available for the spring fundraising season. Eco-One enhances the biodegradation of plastic products in a biologically active landfill. Independent ASTM D5511 tests have shown 5-15% biodegradation within 30 days.

Internationally Delicious and Masterpiece Cookies were merged as of 31 December 2003 into the legal corporate entity, Internationally Delicious, Inc./Masterpiece Cookies, and is commonly referred to as Masterpiece Cookies.
