Breakdown Plastic
What is Breakdown Plastic™?
Breakdown Plastic™ products are made with an organic additive that is introduced to the injection mould process that accelerates the biodegradation process of plastic, rubber, or foam products in a biologically active landfill. What’s left? …only natural remnants without any of the nasty toxic chemicals.
How does it work?
Breakdown Plastic™ is created just like traditional plastic, but with a 1% shot of organic additive. Once product is made with Breakdown Plastic™ it has all the same properties as before. It is only in a landfill where microbes are present that the magic happens… The microbes are attracted to the additive and are able to consume the plastic in a matter of a few years, making Breakdown Plastic™ a completely naturally decomposable product.
