Q: What is PLA?
A: Polylactic acid or polylactide (PLA) is a biodegradable, thermoplastic, aliphatic polyester derived from renewable resources, such as corn starch (in the U.S.) or sugarcanes (rest of world). Although PLA has been known for more than a century, it has only been of commercial interest in recent years, in light of its biodegradability.
Description
World Centric biodegradable and compostable souffle cups are made from NatureWorks polylactic acid (PLA), which is derived from corn grown in the USA. Our biodegradable souffle cups meet the most stringent scientific requirements for biodegradability and compostability, and are ASTM D6400-99 certified for "compostable plastics". Even though they are as light and strong as plastic, they fully biodegrade when composted. Our souffle cups:
Are biodegradable for liquids below 110F
Need stored below 110F and away from heat, hot surfaces and direct sunlight
Instead of using petroleum based plastics which create toxicity and environmental pollution, you can now use our compostable alternatives.
 | These products are BPI (Biodegradables Product Institute) Certified. |
Please note, composting is required for biodegradation. These cups will biodegrade within 180 days in a commercial composting facility but can take up to a year or more to biodegrade in a home composting system.
