What are the Benefits of using Biodegradable Packaging?
StarchTech’s patented biodegradable packing peanuts provide superior performance for all sizes and shapes of products with their ablity to interlock and flex to cushion around a product, and work exceptionally well for products requiring static-free protective ESD packaging materials. Starch-based packing peanuts also do not contribute to landfill waste streams because they can be easily reused, composted, or simply be dissolved with warm water when they are no longer needed. Biodegradable, compostable and reusable packing peanuts are cost-competitive, and offer a clear advantage over other packaging options which include plastics, polystyrene, and other petroleum-based products derived from non-renewable resources. And because StarchTech’s manufacturing process removes the sugars and any food value from the starch used in production of the peanuts, pests are never attracted to the material.
