Starting as a home based business, we quickly grew through word of mouth, and leased a small factory in Ringwood Victoria. Further growth enabled us to purchase two new factories in Bayfield Road, Bayswater Victoria, where we have been operating since 2005.

As a specialist manufacturer of polypropylene folders, binders, wallets and presentation folders, KoDan Oz has full in house processing competence; including high output UV screen printing, die cutting, welding and prototyping. We use state-of-the-art machinery designed specifically for manufacturing and printing polypropylene folder products.

As a responsible consumer, the effects that plastics and other materials have on the environment need to be considered. Many factors must be taken into account in the attempt to reduce the environmental burden on our planet.

All too often, the recyclability of the finished product is seen as the most important issue; however the total environmental impact from manufacture to recycling, is much more relevant and advantageous. This includes the complete life cycle of a product – from production to disposal. Whole of Life environmental impact.

It is known that the environmental effect of disposal plays only a small part, whereas the majority of the effect to the environment is caused during the manufacture of the product in the use of energy and the production of toxins. Recycling is important, but only an outcome – we first need to reduce the energy in production, then reuse before we recycle.

So, what characteristics are important for an environmentally sound material?

Firstly, the most lightweight product will deliver the least impact and consume the least amount of energy – KoDan Oz products are all lightweight – in fact they have a specific gravity of less than 1 – a small decrease in material weight per unit has a practical overall impact when dealing in large quantities. Due to the physical characteristics of polypropylene, a thinner, lightweight container, folder, binder or box, can be produced with excellent strength and rigidity. Compare that to say heavy cardboard – our materials use less energy to produce and certainly less energy to recycle than a heavy cardboard product.

A decrease in material weight, also directly relates to the transportation cost. The higher the cost to ship, the more impact on the environment – that is logic. For example, glass is readily recyclable and made from recyclable materials; however the weight of a sheet of glass increases the environmental effect. As noted earlier, KoDan Oz PP is a lightweight material, with a specific gravity of less than 1.

Also importantly, the manufacturing processes of materials can cause the greatest environmental burden. Originally by-products from oil, such as propylene and ethylene were burnt off into the environment - now propylene is converted to polypropylene. Polypropylene is made up from carbon and hydrogen and is manufactured without any dangerous emissions. There are no halogenated compounds, chlorine or heavy metals involved. This is in direct contrast to other plastics such as PVC, which is generally considered to have little environmental integrity due to the difficulty inherent in its recycling; and of course its heavy metals content. Consider that it is simply not possible to recycle a PVC ring binder – to give the PVC rigidity, it is wrapped around a heavy cardboard insert – this process makes recycling impossible!

An environmentally sound material must have a long working life. KoDan Oz PP products are resistant to water and most oils, greases and chemical products. It is extremely tough and durable. So, KoDan Oz PP is not only lightweight, but it has an exceptionally long life. The longer the life of the product, will again have a positive impact on its environmental integrity.

The handling of waste by recycling, incinerating or land filling is an important environmental issue. Our KDZ PP can be reused and recycled. Polypropylene is 100% recyclable. During recycling, polypropylene retains its strength. Recycled polypropylene does not down grade the inherent characteristics of the substrate. Further, most PP products can be quite easily granulated or crushed and put back through the thermoforming process. We have available PP material made from post industrial waste that is 100% recycled – samples available on request. In other words we can manufacture a stationery binder or folder made from 100% recycled materials!

(Even during incineration, no hazardous gases are emitted – only water vapour and carbon dioxide, which is readily converted by photosynthesis).

Here at KoDan Oz we encourage our products be returned to us for recycling.

It also should be noted, that our PP products can be disposed of in the standard blue recycle bins along with other recyclable plastics.

There is a national recycling code (a triangle with the number 5 inside and the letters “PP” underneath) which should be used whenever possible.

It is worth noting here that Planet Ark Direct – an organisation committed to the health of our planet, sells recyclable polypropylene bags.

Stationery Binders or stationery folders with metal rings or clips, are generally referred to as “ring binders’ or “ring folders”. The manufacturers of these stationery binders and folders, almost always refer to them as “ring binders” and the rings in the binder or folder as “ring metals” or “ring mechanisms”.

But users have lots of different names - clip folders, ring folders, paper binders, paper folders; and as most are made from plastic based materials, some users simply call them plastic folders or plastic binders. So what is correct?  

What is correct, is what suits you the user. You can call them whatever you like, as long as your description is understood by others.

PLASTIC FOLDERS and PLASTIC BINDERS are generally made from either 2 types of plastic.

A plastic folder can be made from polypropylene or pvc – the same goes for a plastic ring binder. It can also be made from polypropylene or pvc.

In general, polypropylene plastic folders are considered a very environmentally sound option insofar as plastic folders or plastic ring binders are concerned.

Apart from the environmental benefits associated with polypropylene folders and ring binders, the material is extremely tough and durable and lightweight. Plastic folders and plastic ring binders made from polypropylene are easy to print, foil stamp or emboss.

POLYPROPYLENE is a flexible non toxic plastic – used in all sorts of applications from food containers to rubbish bins.

Plastic folders and plastic binders made from polypropylene offer long life and environmental integrity. Folders and binders manufactured from polypropylene are 100% recyclable and can be made from 100% recycled materials. It is worth investing in some time if you are looking for plastic folders or plastic binder, wallets and boxes to ask for examples from your potential supplier, and compare the whole of life costs, including costs of manufacturing and costs of recycling, costs associated with freight and transport, postage and packaging.

The other main plastic used for plastic folders and plastic binders appears to be pvc – which is a useful (not recyclable in binder form) plastic used widely throughout the world for numerous commercial applications. It has some environmental issues, particularly when used for plastic folders and plastic binders. It is extremely difficult to recycle and even through it presents well, it often does not look very contempory or modern. But it has it’s place.

PRESENTATION PLASTIC FOLDERS

Your presentation plastic folders and plastic binders should convey value to your audience. Whether you are presenting a sales document, a training document, a product information document or a submission document.

There is little point in trying to convey individuality and expertise if the plastic folder or plastic binder does not communicate individuality and expertise. It is an easy process to develop a presentation binder or folder to help communicate the nature of your work.

Kodan Oz is a Melbourne based manufacturing business whose core activity is designing and manufacturing presentation plastic folders, binders, document wallets and presentation boxes. All designed with one thing in mind – communicating the unique value of your information.
