About PLA


 1.      PLA stands for Poly Lactic Acid.

It is a new biopolymer with versatile applications and is derived from 100% annually renewable resources. PLA is made from sugar (dextrose) which is milled from field corn. PLA is the first greenhouse-gas-neutral polymer in the world.

4. The composting process of PLA products

The rate of biodegration for different compostable products is dependent upon the composition and thickness of the material as well as composting conditions. Commercial composting facilities grind the materials, turn over the piles and reach high temperatures, thus reducing the amount of time it takes to compost.
On the other hand, home composting rates are slower and can vary, depending on how frequently the pile is turned over, the moisture and material content and the temperature.
