Frequently Asked Questions About Biodegradable Packaging

As India's premier biodegradable bag suppliers, Naturoplast answers your most pressing questions about eco-friendly packaging solutions. Our comprehensive FAQ covers everything from material science to business opportunities in sustainable packaging.

Understanding Biodegradable Bags

What exactly are biodegradable bags?

Biodegradable bags are packaging solutions designed to break down naturally through microbial action when exposed to the right environmental conditions. Unlike conventional plastic that persists for centuries, our Naturoplast bags decompose into water, carbon dioxide, and biomass within months to a few years.

Key characteristics include:

  • Made from plant-based materials like corn starch or PBAT
  • Require specific conditions (moisture, heat, microorganisms) to decompose
  • Certified to meet international standards like ASTM D6400
What is the difference between bioplastic and biodegradable plastic?

While these terms are often used interchangeably, there are important distinctions:

Feature Bioplastic Biodegradable Plastic
Source Renewable biomass (plants) Can be petroleum or plant-based
Decomposition May or may not biodegrade Designed to biodegrade
Example Bio-PET PLA, PBAT

Naturoplast uses only certified biodegradable materials that meet both source and decomposition criteria.

Environmental Benefits & Impact

How do biodegradable bags help the environment?

Naturoplast biodegradable bags offer several environmental advantages:
