Plastic waste causes untold damage to the environment as well as costing governments millions of dollars every year for disposal. Plastic waste such as bags and food cartons often ends up in landfill sites or discarded on the street. Incineration of plastic waste causes toxic gases to pollute the air. One solution to the problem is to use biodegradable packaging that decomposes naturally and has no harmful effects on the environment. Used in conjunction with recycling as a means of disposal, this technology can help reduce the millions of tonnes of plastic waste that accumulate every year.

The containers can hold any type of food, whether hot, cold, solid or liquid, and can also be used in a microwave. The containers are even edible!
