Potatisskal råmaterial för organisk plast

Det australiensiska företaget Great Wrap har utvecklat en ny plast gjord av potatisskal. Deras första produkt är en plastfolie.

When the Great Wrap has reached the end of its life, Kay says it can be composted in landfills or home composting systems, where tests have certified it will break down within 180 days.

”Great Wrap breaks down the same way as food scraps, into food and energy for the microbes in your compost,” Kay explained. ”It goes perfectly with your organic waste to be composted into rich nutrient soil, ready to be repurposed.”
