Smart Plastic’s SPTek ECLIPSE® technology is a crucial safety net should plastic products evade the recycling system. Following a guaranteed functional life span, packaging has been shown to degrade up to 63% in 6 months under simulated landfill conditions.
By comparison, conventional plastics are not considered biodegradable. (As verified by ASTM D5526 test).
