Abstract

The invention relates to a method for manufacturing a plastic container, the method comprising the following steps: o providing an injected preform, o heating the preform (S), and o performing stretch blow molding (S) of the preform, thereby forming the container. The preform is made of a material comprising 40 to 99.9 weight percent of Polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA). In the heating step, the preform is brought to a temperature comprised in a range between 1° C. and 20° C. under the melting temperature of the PHA. The present invention thus makes it possible to perform ISBM of Polyhydroxyalkanoate to produce a plastic container.
