Understanding the Basics

As businesses and consumers seek sustainable alternatives to traditional plastics, two key solutions have emerged: bioplastics and Advanced BioRecycling™ technology. While both aim to reduce plastic waste, they function in fundamentally different ways. Understanding these differences is crucial for making informed, environmentally responsible choices.

What Are Bioplastics?

Bioplastics are plastics derived from renewable resources, such as corn starch, sugarcane, or algae, rather than petroleum-based sources. They are often marketed as a greener alternative, but their sustainability is not always straightforward.

Pros of Bioplastics:

✅ Made from renewable sources rather than fossil fuels.
✅ Some are compostable under specific conditions.
✅ Can reduce carbon footprint in production.

Cons of Bioplastics:

❌ Many require industrial composting facilities that are not widely available.
❌ Some bioplastics contaminate recycling streams, making recycling more difficult.
❌ Certain bioplastics still produce microplastics as they degrade.

How Is Advanced BioRecycling™ Different?

Unlike bioplastics, Advanced BioRecycling™ is not a new type of plastic—it’s an additive that enhances the natural breakdown of traditional plastics without disrupting recycling systems.

Key Benefits of Advanced BioRecycling™:

  • Works with existing plastic materials, meaning no need for costly production changes.

  • Does not interfere with recycling, unlike some biodegradable plastics.

  • Activates in landfills and marine environments, where plastic waste is most problematic.

  • Leaves fewer long-term microplastics, addressing a major environmental concern.

Which Option Is Better for Sustainability?

The choice between bioplastics and BioRecycling™ depends on your sustainability goals. Bioplastics may reduce dependence on fossil fuels, but their end-of-life disposal remains a challenge. BioRecycling™, on the other hand, helps address the reality of plastic waste already in circulation by improving how it breaks down.

For companies looking to maintain product durability, support recycling efforts, and minimize environmental impact, BioRecycling™ offers a practical, scalable solution
