PLA (Polylactic Acid) is a biodegradable and bio-based material derived from renewable resources like corn starch or sugarcane.

One of its primary advantages is its environmental friendliness, as it breaks down naturally into non-toxic components, reducing landfill waste and pollution. It is also safe for food contact and has a low carbon footprint compared to traditional plastics.

PLA is compostable under industrial conditions, making it a sustainable alternative to petroleum-based plastics. Its ease of processing and compatibility with existing manufacturing equipment further enhance its appeal as a green material.
