We are a company who manufacture Biodegradable Plastic bags, which are environmentally friendly and non-toxic. The LDP / HDP polymer decays due to the action of enzymes, bacteria, starch & clay when exposed to sunlight and buried in soil such as landfills. The degraded product is compost able, enhancing the nutritive value of the remaining soil. Degradation takes place between 30-90 days once buried. However the product has a shelf life of up to 18 months in packed conditions.
We have an obligation as humans to protect the environment in which we live in for now and future generations. Plastic represents over a million tones of the UK's total waste and can take decades to degrade. We are running out of landfill sites, which are forecasted to run out in the next 5-7 years. We must be Proactive not Reactive.
