Description
Nodax PHA is derived from canola oil and is a marine biodegradable, soil biodegradable, and home compostable material. Increased consumer demand for more soil and ocean-friendly disposable products spurred the company's exploration into a viable solution. PHAs are naturally occurring and they biodegrade in marine and soil environments. The PHA resin used to manufacture the phade straws and stirrers will be certified by TUV/Vincotte for: biodegradability in marine, and soil environments; as well as home and industrial compostable environments. Additionally, compared to alternative substrates, PHA straws performance will be very similar to that of traditional polypropylene strawsa welcome development to customers who are frustrated with the poor performance and customer experience of alternative paper straws that tend to get soggy and collapse.
