About the emergence of PLA cutlery
There are different types of biodegradable plastics, and the one we will discuss is one of the most important bioplastics in the world, PLA. Not only does it break down four times faster than regular plastic, but it can also be composted when taken to a commercial composting facility. An example of PLA is corn starch. As strong as regular plastic, it's an excellent alternative to plastic, especially in
disposable cutlery. PLA is a versatile material corn starch cutlery is not only compostable and environmentally friendly, but also affordable, making it an excellent choice for parties, outdoor activities and takeout.
Traditional plastics, which are made from petroleum products, are very bad for the environment because they take a long time to break down and are becoming increasingly unpopular with consumers for this very specific reason.
