Compostables VS Biodegradables

Compostables bags are made from corn, an agricultural ressource. The wastes resulting from their degradation are entirely organic without any toxic residues. Biodegradables bags are made from fossil-based materials. Their degradation leaves pollutants residues in the environment.

The cycle of life of compostables bags

The GMO-free corn gives the corn starch, which is the base ingredient for the Mater-Bi, which is the base ingredient for the compostables bags, the bags that, at the end of their lives, nourrishes the compost that will be use to grow the GMO-free corn that will give...

Plastic bags : a threat for the environment.

Taken appart the amount of platic bags that ends in the waste disposal landfills, huge amounts of them, scattered with the wind, are found in the natural environment.

A canadian study conducted in 1980 settled that plastic bags and other waste item scattered in the environment are killing 100 000 marine animals each year.

A new material, the Mater-Bi

Being derived from agricultutral ressource, makes starch a renewable material and garanties its availability. Its ressources for the futur are not endangered by its usage today. From renewables ressources : corn Minimum environmental impact. With the same mechanical properties that those of the standard plastics (PEBD). Completely biodegradable and compostable «OK-compost» certification meeting the NF EN 14432 norm.
