Have you heard of biodegradable packaging foams? It is a sustainable alternative to polystyrene-based packaging peanuts. They all look and function similarly. However, these innovative packaging foams are made from starches like corn, wheat, grain sorghum, and potatoes. The traditional foams are made from petroleum.
One obvious advantage of environmentally friendly packaging peanuts is their biodegradability. They dissolve in several minutes when running under water. They are non-toxic and safe in case of accidental ingestion by kids or pets. They are safe for animals or birds too.
They may cost more and have lower performance than the traditional packaging foams. In the long run, consider a sustainable and responsible switch to eco-friendly packaging foams for our greener and cleaner planet.
