How did you celebrate ?

Our friends at Plastics Industry Association are spreading awareness with a great write-up of bioplastics and their importance along with a roadmap of all the things that bioplastics can be made of.

Chances are that you're already using bioplastics, in some form, in your home so why not take the next step?

What Are Bioplastics, and Why Are They Important? - This Is Plastics To some, the name “bioplastics” may sound futuristic or like something out of science fiction—but that’s not the case. The first man-made plastic, introduced in 1862, was a bioplastic, meaning it was made from a renewable resource. Bioplastics can be biobased (made from a renewable resource)...

It's and to celebrate we wanted to showcase bioplastics in the home. Bioplastics are all around us and can be identified by looking for the biobased or compostable label.

Learn more from our friends at the Plastics Industry Association with their handy graphic on their website.

Plastics Industry Association The Plastics Industry Association is the only organization that represents every segment of the plastics supply chain to make members more globally competitive.
