What is the difference between fully biodegradable plastic bags and degradable plastic bags?
In daily life, the amount of plastic bags used is quite large, and there are many types of plastic bags. As an ordinary consumer, I only care about whether the plastic bags look good and are durable, and rarely pay attention to the material of the plastic bags and the harm they cause to the environment after being discarded. With the gradual promotion and implementation of the "ban on plastics" order, more and more consumers are beginning to pay attention to biodegradable and environmentally friendly plastic bags, and fully biodegradable plastic bags. Many customers often consult about degradable plastic bags, but it seems that many customers do not know that there are degradable plastic bags and fully biodegradable plastic bags. Today, Shunxingyuan Packaging, a professional flexible packaging manufacturer, will give you a popular science lesson.

Degradable plastic bags, literally, are plastic bags that can be degraded, which means they can be degraded, but they still contain plastic and other related components. Only partial degradation occurs, not complete degradation. After disposal, they are still landfilled or incinerated like traditional plastic bags. In this way, they will still pollute the environment to a certain extent. In other words, when consumers use degradable plastic bags, their final destination is actually the same as traditional plastic bags. After disposal, they all end up in landfills or are incinerated, and cannot be subjected to special industrial composting and degradation treatment. Therefore, "degradable" only means "can be degraded", not equal to "fully biodegradable". In a sense, degradable plastic bags are not a feasible solution to "white pollution", and are not a "panacea" for solving plastic bag pollution. In essence, they will still produce a large amount of waste, and degradable plastic bags are actually not degraded.


Fully biodegradable plastic bags are made of PLA (polylactic acid) and PBAT (polybutylene adipate-co-terephthalate), which are recognized environmentally friendly materials and harmless green and environmentally friendly products. Under composting conditions, fully biodegradable plastic bags can be completely biodegraded within 180 days. The degradation products are carbon dioxide and water, which directly enter the soil to be absorbed by plants, returning to the soil, or degrading in the general environment without polluting the environment, truly achieving from nature and returning to nature.
The use of fully biodegradable plastic bags greatly reduces the pollution of plastic products to the environment, truly achieving green environmental protection, health and hygiene, and peace of mind.
