FAQs
What is EcoPlastic made from?
Using a modified plastic polymer, our EcoPlastic material is able to naturally and safely break down at an accelarated rate compared to alternative materials.
Are EcoPlastic components recyclable, biodegradable or compostable?
Our EcoPlastic components are all 100% recyclable and biodegradable, which means that they will break down naturally if they accidentally end up in landfill. EcoPlastic is not compostable so does not need special conditions in order for the material to biodegrade and can go into standard plastic recycling streams.
Are the performance, appearance or characteristics of EcoPlastic altered in comparison?
Items made from our EcoPlastic material are just as strong, durable and look the same as regular plastic components as the material will only begin to biodegrade when exposed to the microbes found in landfill conditions.
How long does it take for EcoPlastic components to biodegrade?
If our EcoPlastic components accidentally reach landfill rather than being recycled they will biodegrade at a significantly accelerated rate compared to regular plastic components but recycling EcoPlastic components is always recommended.
Are biodegradable plastics harmful to the environment?
Our EcoPlastic components actually break down into natural compounds, which are not harmful to the environment, rather than microplastics like many other biodegradable materials.
