What are the advantages of bioplastics?

Posted by Keshav Jain on







            The production of bioplastics is eco-friendly, as they use renewable sources rather than the non-renewable sources, thus saving a lot of energy. They also make use of agricultural waste material. It produces less non-biodegradable waste than other plastics. It is therefore less contaminating.



            They do not change the scent or taste of the packed food. No harmful substance would leach out of bioplastics and they do not use additives that may affect health like phthalates and bisphenol-A. They give out less greenhouse gases as well. They are decomposable and cause no harm while blending with soil.
