Biodegradable items have their time and place, but it is important that we as a nation understand just how long things take to break down in landfill, especially when many items that are thrown away as general waste can be recycled or reused instead
We’ve said before that the term “biodegradable” is actually an attractive way of saying “send to landfill” and the latest news from the Foodservice Packaging Association (FPA) backs this up – they are calling for the term “biodegradable” to be wiped from packaging descriptions to stop confusion over how items can be disposed of
We have many environmental issues to face up to as we move into 2019; plastic in our oceans, raising further awareness of correct recycling practices for recyclable materials, reducing the amount of waste we as a nation put into landfill, and now also the fact that gel polymer is looking set to become the new “fat cake” in our sewers.
Our awareness as a nation needs to grow when it comes to our “throwaway” culture and grabbing drinks in plastic bottles to have on the go. Biodegradable bottles will go some way to addressing the issue, but do the real problems lie in the way we are marketed to?
We talk about “Phase Change Materials” or PCM on our website and products a lot, but what actually are they, and why do we use them in our range of temperature controlled shipping products?
