SAVE OUR NATION

SAVE OUR NATION
Alive Earth Goes Dead

Sunday, August 16, 2009

EcoDegradable® and EcoBio® products have undergone full-scale landfill trials. In landfill trials, at ambient temperatures of 20°C to 35°C, EcoDegradable® modified plastic lost more than 95% of its molecular weight (Mw) in less than 10 months.

The EcoDegradable®and EcoBio® message is clear and proven. EcoDegradable® degradable products provide the performance of "ordinary" plastic in use. When modified with a proprietary additive, the natural oxidative degradation process of ordinary plastic is accelerated by several orders of magnitude. This causes the modified plastic to totally degrade and fragment in highly predictable and controllable time frames.

EcoDegradable® and EcoBio® Oxo-biodegradable products establish “controllable lifecycles” for commodity polyolefin products so that once used, they are safely returned to the natural bio-cycle as fragments of “organic carbon”. Carbon that can be colonized, ingested and mineralized by microorganisms in a natural biological process freeing up air space in landfills and helping to mitigate the problem of "accumulating" plastic litter in our environment and watersheds.

Our EcoDegradable® Garbage Bags have the same powerful benefits as the Doggie Bags marketed by PSCI.

EcoDegradable® Garbage Bags and Liners are engineered to provide the service and performance of ordinary plastic but will totally fragment and disintegrate in 12 to 24 months when disposed of in a landfill.

The EcoBio® message is clear and proven.

EcoBio® Oxo-Biodegradable Waste Collection Bags provide the performance of “ordinary” plastic in use while the proprietary additives accelerate the natural oxidative degradation process of ordinary plastic by several orders of magnitude, causing EcoBio® plastics to totally degrade and biodegrade in highly predictable and controllable time frames. What previously might takes decades to degrade will take only months.

EcoBio® Oxo-Biodegradable Waste Collection Bags and Bin Liners are engineered to provide the service and performance of ordinary plastic but will totally fragment and disintegrate in 90 to 120 days and 60% mineralize / biodegrade in a further 12 to 24 months when disposed of in longer term commercial compost facilities and in subsequent soil application.

EcoBio® Oxo-Biodegradable Waste Collection Bags and Bin Liners are application specific made in a variety of standard sizes, medium and heavy duty. Capacity includes, 4 and 13 gallon under the sink food and organic waste collection bags, 30 and 39 gallon lawn and leaf collection bags, and 39XL, 48 and 64 gallon bin liners.
