We all know:
Single-use Plastics =
A (Huge) Problem.
Plastics clog our oceans, pollute the planet, and take over 200 years to break down. While alternatives exist, most fall short—expensive, resource-heavy, or containing harmful PFAS. Nearly 90% of plastics are used once and discarded, forcing businesses and consumers to compromise between sustainability, performance, and affordability.
So What Are We Doing About It?
At plasticless, we’re not just tackling the plastic problem—we’re redefining how we think about sustainability.
Let's clear up the confusion between biodegradability and compostability, because not all solutions are created equal. Understanding the difference is key to seeing how our innovation truly stands apart.
Understanding the Solution:
Compostability
Biodegradability
It’s important to note that compostable items are held to stricter standards, ensuring they decompose within a specific time frame and leave no toxic residue behind.
Saying something is biodegradable can sometimes create a false perception of sustainability, as it can sometimes leave harmful elements behind. By understanding these differences, we can make more informed choices to support a truly sustainable future.
Plasticless straws are compostable, meaning they meet these strict standards, ensuring they break down efficiently and safely, contributing to a cleaner, more sustainable planet.
All compostable material is biodegradable; but not all biodegradable material is compostable.
Our answer to the global plastic crisis.
Sometimes, true innovation lies in reimagining what’s already around us. By repurposing millions of tonnes of corn byproducts that would otherwise go to waste, we have created a sustainable, plastic-free coating that naturally returns to the Earth.​
​
It's time we embrace what nature has already given us.
