Look for the Bio-DTM logo, special embossing and bar-code on the Bio-DTM film. Besides this the film would also mention the recommended method of disposal and a warning that the film should not be used beyond three to six months. However the ultimate test would be to stretch the film between two hooks and expose it to the sun for a period of 30 to 45 days and watch the film degrade. (Try it !?!). Buy films and other end products from authorized distributors,shops only. Bio-DTM is a trade mark of Bio-DTM Plastics. Any infringment or duplication of the same would invite appropriate stringent legal action.
