Greenworksbio has launched innovative eco-friendly products — compostable and biodegradable alternatives to single-use plastics. Greenworksbio’s new product line includes compostable granules, eco-friendly tableware, sustainable hygiene solutions, and more, catering to diverse industry needs. Developed in partnership with CSIR-IICT, these products are made from renewable resources like starch and agricultural waste and meet stringent national composability standards.
“This groundbreaking initiative aims to combat plastic pollution with sustainable solutions and aligns with India’s vision to phase out single-use plastics while promoting a circular economy,” Rishika Reddy, Director of Greenworks Bio, has said.
The biocomposites demonstrate remarkable tensile strength, reduced sensitivity to moisture, and enhanced compostability. These properties make them ideal for packaging, carry bags, waste collection bags, agricultural films and much more.
The resulting products offer high load-bearing capacity, thinner designs for reduced material usage, and improved transparency.
“These products achieve over 90% biodegradation within 180 days under composting conditions,” she said.
“By leveraging advanced technologies developed in collaboration with CSIR-IICT, we are making a tangible impact on reducing plastic pollution and driving positive change in industries worldwide,” she said.
