REEBOK - Use of Biodegradable plastics

The corporates, mainly retail industries and others where, packaging involves are now switching to biodegradable plastics for their packaging. Reebok India is one such example, for this. Recently I was handed over a Reebok bag in its outlet. Back home I observed an 'environmentally safe' symbol at the bottom of the bag. That did interest me.
Now, corporates are taking steps to go green, because they know it matters.  Reebok- India, did found out a  manufacturers named KAYSONS INDIA PVT LTD Who manufacturers biodegradable plastics. This Biodegradable plastic is made with combination of virgin plastic vegetable starch, organic minerals & vegetable extracts processed in a controlled conditions & thickness of  50 microns. The biodegradable bag can be re-used for carrying domestic garbage. The bags are manufactured with materials which are tested for its bio-biodegradability.


Definitely there are many more methods how a biodegradable plastic can be made but, the point over here is, how concerned the corporates are in using them.
Green companies should shift its focus not only towards green suppliers but also towards suppliers with green products. This drives suppliers towards green innovation and ultimately to green revolution.
