What are bio polymers?

Biodegradable Polymers (BDP) and Biopolymers are developed by the chemicals and plastics industries. As they are similar in structure to conventional plastic polymers, standard polymer processing methods can be used to transform them into end products. The main difference between BDPs and conventional polymers is that BDPs can be broken down by micro-organisms, i.e. fungi and bacteria.

Biodegradable polymers and biopolymers can be produced, both from renewable resources of animal or plant origin, and from fossil resources. They can be converted into products of verifiable compostability.
