Ecoplas is Greenhope’s starch-based biodegradable bioplastics. Using innovative technology, Greenhope transforms cassava starch into Ecoplas bioplastic resins. These plastic resins are then easily applied into various bioplastic-based packaging. Once the product becomes waste, it will biodegrade in landfills, soil, and various natural conditions with the help of microbes within up to a year. This biodegradation process is non-toxic and safe for the environment and soil, while also emitting 30% less GHG and utilizing 45% less energy in comparison to normal plastics.
