WE CAN PROVIDE AN EARTH NURTURE MICROBIODEGRADABLE ALTERNATIVE AT EXTREMELY COMPETITIVE PRICES.
All of our products are third generation MICROBIODEGRADABLE plastic. This means that they degrade completely due to the natural action of microbes in the soil, even when buried in a standard landfill where there is no air, light or mechanical stress. These products can also be RECYCLED normally (whereas corn based PLA plastic are not recyclable).
Our products function in exactly the same manner as their conventional equivalents and the costs are comparable to standard plastic items. We are continually developing new microbiodegradable plastic alternatives for industry, business and consumers.
We are specialised in private labelling and the customisation of plastic products all of which are available in PET, PP, LDPE and HDPE. If you do not see items that interest you please contact us to discuss your interest and requirements.

FACTS and INFORMATION ABOUT VARIOUS TYPES OF BIODEGRADABLE PLASTIC
2) Oxo-biodegradable conventional plastic:
These are conventional plastics with an additive that causes them to biodegrade. They require a two part process to biodegrade, all parts of which must occur in the open air or in soil that is aerated . The first half of the process requires either heat, UV light or mechanical stress. The second part of the process occurs when bacteria consume the partly decomposed plastic. This type of plastic is best suited where littering is the primary concern. Important to note that this type of plastic cannot be composted and there is no ecological advantage when placed in landfills.
3) MICROBIODEGRADABLE conventional plastic
(available from Biogreen Products Europe):
These are conventional plastics to which a special additive has been added causing them to microbiodegrade naturally. This additive works only in soil that has naturally occurring micro organisms. It will biodegrade with or without oxygen, UV light, heat or mechanical stress. In an oxygenated environment it decomposes into humus, carbon dioxide, and water. In an oxygen deprived atmosphere it decomposes into humus, methane and water. This kind of plastic is not recommended for composting because it takes somewhat longer to biodegrade than the typical commercial composting cycle, but it is excellent for disposal in landfills.
In order to produce plastics that degrade in a landfill, setting another scientific approach was necessary. Company Y has developed an alternative method for creating biodegradable plastics. This method involves a proprietary combination of organic and inorganic chemical materials which have been mixed in a very precise formulation and compounded into a reactor-grade master batch pellet. When this pellet is compounded with any polyethylene or polypropylene resin, the resulting plastic is biodegradable. The bio degradation of X-treated plastic occurs through aerobic (oxygen dependant) and anaerobic (dependent on the absence of oxygen) pathways. Micro organisms consume the plastic, assimilating the material for cellular processes and producing a mixture of metabolic products (principally methane, carbon dioxide, and water).
