EPR Approved Company - (Extended Producer Responsibility)

What is OXO - Biodegradable Plastic?

A OXO - Biodegradable Plastic bag is made from normal polyethylene product-the same as most bags-but is also contains newly invented additives.

What makes it OXO - Biodegradable?

Our bags, sheets, and covers are made from normal polyethylene with special additives that enable controlled biodegradation without harming the environment.

How does it work?

Biodegradable additives when mixed with compatible plastic raw material LLDPE / LDPE, Will cause the plastic to photo, thermal and chemically degrade as litter in anaerobic and aerobic facilities. These plastics will progressively degrade to lower and lower molecular weights As a result of which they become brittle, fragmented until appoint in time they are digested by the micro organisms back to the basic elements of carbon dioxide, water and the biomass.

Applications

Hotels & Hospitals are places where maximum waste is generated. This waste needs to be disposed of in a very systematic manner, but while serving the society, this Customer Service Industry uses Virgin / Recycled Poly Bags as they serve them well due to their versatile properties of being light, cheep, non-tearing and waterproof. But it is increasingly being realized that the use of these long-lasting polymers for short-lived applications is entirely unjustified, especially when increased concem exists about the preservation of living systems. Millions of poly bags, with a use life ranging from a few minutes to a few hours, are thrown away to choke sewer lines, clog drains and cause infertility of soil. They cause food contamination and animal deaths. This is where OXO - Biodegradable Plastic can play a major role in serving all its purpose and at the same time is not hazardous or harmful to nature.

Our company provides Biodegradable polythene having all the advantages of normal plastic, Our product while serving the purpose of plastic when exposed to sunlight or when kept in natural decaying conditions degrades in a stipulated period

In places like Nurseries or Forests where Plastic is used for cultivation and other purpose, this plastic after serving it’s purposes, this plastic after serving it’s purpose causes a great harm to the natural environment; In such cases OXO - Biodegradable Plastic is a veru Useful and affordable replacement.
