BIODEGRADABLE CARRY BAGS AND GARBAGE BAGS [CODE NO.3627]
The plastic materials currently used in SUPCB manufacture are usually sourced from fossil-based resources. However the continued use of fossil-derived carbon as the raw material source for shortlife plastic products raises serious sustainability questions around resource security and carbon impact.
Bio-plastics can be defined as plastics where part or all of the material is derived from renewable biomass resources. For the purposes of clarity we will refer to bio-based plastics as those made from plant-based molecular sources. The term ‘bio-based’ must not be confused with the term ‘biodegradable’ which refers to the natural breakdown of a material at the end of life disposal phase. Not all bio-based polymers are biodegradable and not all biodegradable polymers are bio-based; some biodegradable polymers only biodegrade under specific circumstances.
With the introduction of plant-based bio-PE as a ‘drop-in’ alternative to fossil-derived PE (offering a direct replacement to its fossil based equivalent), coupled with an increase in the production capacity of these bio-polymers, it is becoming increasingly difficult to ignore the potential that bioplastics offer to improving the sustainability of plastic products. They are making an impact on the wider plastics market, in part because:
• As a result of increased demand and finite supply there is a long term upward trend in the cost of fossil based resources. As a result demand for bio-plastics is rising strongly year on year at a rate of 20-100%.
• The resources used to make bio-polymers are predominantly annual crops (such as corn and sugar beet) or perennial cultures (such as cassava and sugarcane) and as such are considered renewable.
• Bio-based plastics present a unique opportunity to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions or even become carbon neutral.
