Want to integrate your daily life and protect the environment? Keep yourself and the earth together?
In recent years, with the increasing awareness of environmental protection, the application of biodegradable bags has become more and more widespread. Degradable bags have many advantages, such as its ability to effectively reduce plastic pollution, reduce the damage to the ecological environment; in the production process relative to the traditional plastic bags, often lower energy consumption, helping energy saving and emission reduction; and degradable bags can be disassembled faster under the right conditions after the waste, and will not take up the land resources for a long time.
We have received many inquiries from our guests about environmentally friendly bags and biodegradable plastic bags, and they want to use more environmentally friendly garment bags and decorative bags to inject more power into the earth's environmental protection cause. Undoubtedly, all the efforts they put in will be received as a gift from nature later. We are also committed to helping our customers to find good quality and low price environmental protection bags, including biodegradable bags, compostable degradable bags, customers use these bags to package pellets, clothes, socks, pants, underwear and so on.
Many products are labeled "biodegradable", "biodegradable" is divided into "biodegradable" and "compostable". Both are environmentally friendly, but there is a difference in the degradation process and results, and in practice, we will recommend according to the customer's needs for the degree of environmental protection. In order to make it easier for the composting industry to distinguish and accept "biodegradable" and "compostable" materials, the European Union has developed the EN13432 standard. This standard defines what can or cannot be described as "compostable" and what can be called "biodegradable". The ASTM D6400-99 standard in the U.S. has similar requirements. If you're not sure which one you have, ask the seller for a certificate.
1. Biodegradable
Biodegradation is a naturally occurring process that requires the help of microorganisms, such as bacteria and fungi, to break down the material and absorb it into the natural environment. After decomposition is complete, biomass, carbon dioxide, and water will be produced, etc. The time it takes is related to the properties of the material itself and the weather factors. Currently, in the application of biodegradable packaging bags, most of the "biodegradable" consumer products on the market need to be 100% with the help of additional auxiliary measures, otherwise it will take a long time to degrade completely.
Plant-based plastics, for example, are a common "biodegradable" material, but while they are easier and safer to break down than regular plastics, if environmental factors are not in place, it can take about the same amount of time to break down as regular plastics.
Finally, the biggest difference between "biodegradable" and "compostable" materials in terms of degradation results is that "biodegradable" materials leave behind heavy metals and other hazardous substances.
2. Compostable degradation
As the name suggests, a "composting" step is needed to assist degradation, which sounds a bit cumbersome, but at present, many composting organizations and home backyards can achieve "composting" treatment. In the application area of biodegradable bags, unlike biodegradable, "compostable degradation" requires human intervention to biodegrade certain substances or products in certain environments, human-driven environments (microorganisms, humidity, and heat), and is used in the term compostable to describe products that can be broken down into non-toxic, naturally occurring elements (water, biomass, inorganic compounds), biomass, inorganic compounds).
In general, all "compostable degradable" products are "biodegradable" and vice versa.
