Biopackage – degradable single use plastic bag

Degradable single use bags are replacing traditional plastic bags today. Some examples material: PLA (PHA, PBS)/cellulose or PLA (PHA, PBS)/starch decomposes in soil into compost (Ok Composte Home, Seedling)

 

Traditional plastics are often made from fossil fuels and thus contribute to the ongoing climate crisis. According to a report by the United Nations Environment Program (UNEP), plastics made from fossil fuels alone account for about 15% of the world’s carbon budget, equivalent to about 1.7 billion tons of CO2.

 

Single use bags are biodegradable, distributed and commercialized by Greentech

Bio-cover is produced from green ingredients such as starch (rice flour, potatoes and corn, tapioca starch…), cellulose (coffee husks, rice husks,…).
