ECM Technology for the Biodegradation* of Plastic Products
The technology is an additive which, when combined in small quantities with any of the popular plastic resins, renders the end products biodegradable* while maintaining their other desired characteristics. It is sold as ECM MasterBatch Pellets and our Company has developed the technology to the point where most plastic products manufacturers can use the additive without having to modify their existing methods of production any more than if they were changing the product’s color. The resulting plastic products exhibit the same desired mechanical properties, have effectively similar shelf-lives, and yet, when disposed of, are able to be metabolized into biomass by the communities of microorganisms commonly found almost everywhere on this planet. This biodegradation* process can take place aerobically and anaerobically. It can take place with or without the presence of light.
