Promoting Awareness and Adoption of Biodegradable Plastic Bags in Mauritius

In today’s world, sustainability is a pressing global issue. With growing environmental concerns, individuals and organizations are actively seeking ways to minimize their ecological impact. One powerful solution gaining traction is the use of biodegradable plastic bags.

Benefits of BioMaurice Biodegradable plastic bags

Biodegradable plastics are designed to break down naturally over time, usually through microbial action, into simpler substances that are less harmful to the environment. They can be composted and turned into nutrient-rich soil additives, closing the loop and reducing the need for virgin resources.

This contrasts with traditional plastics that can persist for hundreds of years in the environment, causing pollution and harming ecosystems.
