PHA and PLA are both types of bio-plastics, but they are quite different in how they're made, decompose and their effects on the environment.
Why is PHA a better choice than PLA? 🌱
PHA naturally breaks down with the help of bacteria and goes back into the environment safely, leaving no harmful microplastics, like PLA does.
It's also easier to deal with after use: you can recycle PHA, compost it at home or in large facilities, which isn't always possible with PLA.
Plus, making PHA uses less energy and is kinder to our planet because it comes from a natural process of fermentation.
At Beyond Plastic, we support using PHA to help us all live more sustainably. Every product we make with PHA is a step towards a better future. 🌐
