12*220 PLA ​​straws are a popular and widely used type of large-diameter straws on the market. Designed specifically for bubble tea, these straws are perfect for easily sipping on various ingredients in your milk tea, including coconut jelly and tapioca pearls. The larger straw diameter allows smooth flow of beverages along with chewy, delicious toppings, enhancing the overall drinking experience. Made from PLA (polylactic acid), these straws are an eco-friendly alternative to traditional plastic straws. PLA is derived from renewable resources such as cornstarch or sugar cane, making it biodegradable and compostable. This is in line with the trend towards sustainability in the food and beverage industry. The 12*220 size means a wider and longer straw, providing practicality for large-capacity drinks and ensuring customers can enjoy the full range of tastes and flavors of bubble milk tea. This length is ideal for tall cups, allowing easy access to the drink’s layered ingredients. In addition to functionality, these PLA straws can be customized to fit different brand aesthetics. Whether adding bright colors, a logo, or a specific design, customization options are available to keep the straws consistent with the beverage business’s overall branding.

Our innovative 12*220mm PLA straws perfectly combine sustainability with superior quality. Made from PLA (polylactic acid), an advanced bioplastic derived from renewable resources such as cornstarch or sugar cane, these straws are known for their eco-friendly properties as they are fully biodegradable and compostable, significantly Helps reduce environmental impact.

The drying technology

The drying technology in the PLA straw workshop refers to the process of placing straw products in an environment of specific temperature and humidity, and using hot air or other methods to achieve a certain physical or chemical modification effect. This helps improve the performance and quality of straw, especially under some special production requirements.

The drying technology principles used in the PLA straw workshop are as follows:

1. Crystallization Modification: PLA (polylactic acid), as a biodegradable plastic, has a certain degree of crystallinity. By carrying out crystallization treatment at a certain temperature, the crystallinity of PLA can be increased, thereby improving its physical properties such as strength and heat resistance. This helps ensure that the straw is less likely to deform and soften during use.

2. Removal of Residual Moisture:During the manufacturing process of PLA straws, some moisture may remain. Through drying, the moisture inside and outside the straw can be evaporated, ensuring that the straw remains dry during packaging and transportation, and preventing moisture from affecting its performance and quality.

3. Shape Fixation: During the manufacturing process, the straws may need to be given a specific shape through a mold or forming process. Drying technology can help straws better maintain their designed shape after forming, improving product consistency and accuracy.

4. Removal of Volatile Substances: In some cases, volatile additives or ingredients may be used in the manufacturing process of PLA straws. By drying, these volatile substances can be removed, ensuring that the straws meet food grade and environmental standards.

To sum up, the drying technology of PLA straw workshop is mainly to improve the physical and chemical properties of straw and ensure that it meets specific production and quality standards. The application of this technology can be adapted and optimized according to specific production requirements.

Material Composition:

The journey of our PLA straws begins with high-quality corn pellets as raw material. These pellets undergo a careful production process to ensure that the straws meet the highest quality and sustainability standards. PLA’s unique properties make it an excellent alternative to traditional plastics. Not only is it biodegradable, it’s also heat-resistant and crystal clear, providing a premium and eco-friendly solution to your beverage needs.

Crystallization Technology:

One of the keys to our PLA straw production is the application of advanced crystallization technology. Crystallization is a process that enhances the structural properties of PLA, ensuring the straw is durable, heat-resistant, and maintains its integrity during use. This technology is essential to maintain a stable shape when used with hot beverages, achieving the best balance between functionality and sustainability.

Environmental Advantages:

As a plant-based material, PLA straws play a vital role in reducing dependence on fossil fuels. Raw materials from agriculture promote closed-loop systems and contribute to a circular economy. PLA straws have a lower carbon footprint than traditional plastic straws and are in line with global sustainability goals.

Production Process:

The production process of our PLA straws involves multiple stages, starting with the careful selection of high-quality PLA resin. The resin is then melted and extruded into the shape of a straw. The subsequent crystallization process enhances the strength and durability of the straw. Before they arrive in your hands, they are precision cut and thoroughly quality checked to ensure they meet our strict standards.

Customization Options:

In addition to their eco-friendly features, our PLA straws offer a customizable platform. Whether you prefer bright colors, a logo, or a specific design, we offer customization options to make your straws consistent with your brand image. Personalized PLA straws enhance your beverage presentation while helping to promote sustainability.

Applications:

These versatile PLA straws are suitable for a variety of beverages, from cold to hot. Their sturdy construction ensures they can withstand varying temperature conditions, providing businesses and consumers with a reliable and environmentally friendly solution.

Conclusion:

All in all, our 12*220 PLA ​​straws are the perfect blend of innovative material science and sustainable practices. From the careful selection of raw materials to the implementation of crystallization technology, every step is taken to ensure that our straws meet the highest quality and sustainability standards.
