Evolooption's packaging products are made from bio resins and polymers, compounded with natural starches like corn and cassava. They are designed to be fully biodegradable and compostable These materials break down into back into their original starch and sugar form when exposed to moisture and heat.
The shelf life of Evolooption's biodegradable products varies depending on the product type. Bio pallet wrap and bio bubble wrap have a shelf life of about 9-12 months, while hangers have a shelf life of about 1-3 years. These estimates can be extended if the products are stored in cool and dry conditions. It's important to note that shelf life refers to the time a product can be stored before use, while biodegradation is the process by which the product breaks down into natural elements after use. The two should not be confused, as they represent different stages in the product lifecycle.
The time it takes for our packaging products to biodegrade depends on the conditions they are exposed to.
For home composting, products will biodegrade to nothing within 3- 6 months in the presence of moisture and heat. However, this timeline can vary based on environmental factors. If you have a compost bin at home the products can degrade faster.
Evolooption products meet the industry TUV certification requirements of a 120 day decomposition. The conditions of industrial composting involve higher heat and more moisture than home composting.
Pls do note Product shelf life is different to breakdown of product
Our Bio hangers are designed to biodegrade in approximately 3-5 years under the right conditions. This is longer than our other packaging products due to their thicker and sturdier structure.
No, our packaging products are not designed to be recycled. Instead, they are compostable and should be disposed of in a composting environment where they can biodegrade naturally either by Home Composting or Industrial Composting.
Yes, our packaging products are safe for the environment. They are made from natural materials and are designed to break down into harmless materials that do not contribute to pollution or harm wildlife.
While you can dispose of our packaging products in regular trash, we encourage composting them to take full advantage of their biodegradable properties and minimize environmental impact.
No, our packaging products do not leave any harmful residues or toxins as they biodegrade. They break down back into their natural starches and sugars, these are safe for the environment. Evolooption products DO NOT biodegrade into micro plastics.
To ensure the fastest biodegradation, dispose of our packaging products in a composting environment with adequate moisture and warmth. Regular turning of the compost pile can also help speed up the process.
The key conditions for the biodegradation of our packaging products are the presence of moisture and heat. These conditions are typically found in composting environments, which facilitate the natural breakdown process.
Yes, our products are certified to meet international standards for biodegradability and compostability, ensuring they break down effectively in composting environments.
Yes, by using our biodegradable and compostable packaging products, you can reduce your carbon footprint and contribute to a more sustainable environment.
While our products may have a slightly higher upfront cost than traditional plastic packaging, they offer long-term savings by reducing waste disposal fees and environmental impact.
Yes, we offer customization options to meet your specific branding and product packaging needs while maintaining our commitment to sustainability.
Yes, our packaging products do not contain polyethylene or any toxic substances, making them safe for the environment and your products.
Our compostable packaging is made from non-GMO corn starch and certified with TUV to EN13432, AS4736, and AS5810 industrial standards, ensuring they meet strict criteria for each test involved.
