Biodegradable Plastic Bags Biodegradable bags are bags that are made from materials that can be broken down by natural processes, such as bacteria or fungi, into their basic components, such as carbon dioxide, water, and biomass. This process is called biodegradation. Biodegradable bags can be made from a variety of materials, including corn starch, potato starch, and other plant-based materials. They can also be made from synthetic polymers that are designed to break down more easily than traditional plastics. Biodegradable plastic bags are manufactured using biodegradable materials and a proprietary manufacturing process. The manufacturing process involves converting carbohydrates based on potato plants into naturally occurring amorphous bio-based polymers. The process then blends the polymer with traditional plastics, recycled plastics and bioplastics to enhance its durability and lightweight properties while ensuring biodegradability. Sustainable and environmentally friendly packaging The enhanced film strength of these plant-based plastic bags allows for reduced thickness, making them more durable than fossil fuel plastic bags. The process blends plant-based polymers with select traditional plastics through proprietary manufacturing to produce highly durable and lightweight bags. When disposed of in the soil or sea bed, they break down into biomaterials that can be recycled in multiple cycles. This significantly reduces the potential for plastic pollution and its impact on the environment. Biodegradable bags focus on reducing the carbon footprint and contribute to a cleaner, greener future by minimizing the need for plastics derived from fossil fuels. Promoting environmental responsibility In addition, these bags promote biodegradation without shredding and promote the biodegradation of PBAT (polybutylene terephthalate) even in simulated marine environments, thereby reducing the required temperature. These biodegradable plastic bags are TUV OK Compost Certified and recognized as a 100% U.S. certified bio-based product, demonstrating sustainability and environmental responsibility. Minimizing environmental concerns in the supply chain is a priority, and biodegradable plastic bags can replace traditional plastics.
