August Thomsen announces new disposable cake decorating bags featuring iQ™ based NuPlastiQ®


August Thomsen is pleased to announce the launch of their new disposable cake decorating bags featuring iQ™ based NuPlastiQ®, a technology powered by plants designed to reduce the environmental persistence of plastic pollutants.

NuPlastiQ® is a revolutionary 100% plant-based material designed to help reduce carbon emissions and transition the plastics industry towards a circular model.

While plastics are amazingly useful, they must evolve to reduce the negative environmental impact that uncollected plastics have on land and sea, in addition to human health concerns. The incorporation of BioLogiQ’s plant-based material into common plastic products, such as August Thomsen’s cake decorating bags, is a positive example of circularity solutions in action. By offsetting the amount of virgin fossil-fuel based plastic material with plant-based alternatives, the risks associated with virgin fossil fuel sources are also reduced, including greenhouse gas emissions and micro plastic concerns.

That’s why August Thomsen chooses to include iQ™ based NuPlastiQ® in their products, to provide environmental improvement without compromise to performance, functionality, or convenience.

For over 100 years and four generations, August Thomsen has carefully refined the Ateco brand of cake decorating and baking tools, assuring the highest level of quality, functionality, and relevance to today’s demanding decorators.  The introduction of cake decorating bags made with iQ™ based NuPlastiQ® provides a viable sustainable product offering that customers are requesting.

“I love the performance of the new Ateco disposable bags and the fact they’re made with NuPlastiQ® is icing on the cake.” Anthony from Greenvale, NY.

“Our disposable bags are a perfect fit for NuPlastiQ®.  The polyethylene film used to make them is not universally recycled and disposable decorating bags are rarely cleaned, so they are mostly thrown away.”  Doug from Ateco.
