Tag: Biodegradable packaging

Every year, an estimated eight million tons of plastic waste are dumped into the oceans, with plastic bottles making up a significant portion of this pollution. Edible water balls offer an innovative and sustainable solution to this growing environmental crisis by providing a biodegradable alternative to single-use plastic packaging.

According to the US FDA, Polylactic Acid (PLA) is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) for use in food packaging under recommended conditions. This renewable, plant-based bioplastic is gaining traction as a sustainable alternative to traditional, petroleum-based plastics.
