Compostable bioplastics are materials made from natural sources, such as corn starch or sugarcane, that can break down in composting environments. Unlike traditional plastics, which can take hundreds of years to decompose, these bioplastics are designed to return to the earth more quickly, reducing waste in landfills. These bioplastics can be used for various applications, including packaging, utensils, and bags. When disposed of properly in a composting facility, they can decompose into organic matter, enriching the soil and minimizing environmental impact.
