What Types of Biological Packaging Are There?
When we read or hear about biological packaging, we probably all know that the materials used to produce the packaging have biological origins and do not contain oil derivates, as most current packaging systems do. What is not as well known is that biological packaging can be different in type depending on the way that the material after usage is broken down. This becomes important for single use transport packaging applications. When we look at this factor of breaking down in nature, we can distinguish three major material types, these are:
- Biodegradable materials
- Oxo-degradable materials
- Oxo-biodegradable materials
