Archer Daniels Midland Company and Metabolix provide an effective solution for restaurants that produce huge amount of non-biodegradable wastes. Let the environment get a break from increasing landfills. Here is an eco-friendly alternative to plastic cutlery, especially for the fast food restaurant.
The material is a new generation of natural plastics made from agricultural raw materials. These are not only bio-degradable but also not made of petrochemicals. The manufacturing plant is situated in North America, which has an annual capacity of 50,000 tons. This “new generation” plastics can not only withstand hot liquids, grease and oils, but also can degrade easily when disposed of.
