In the agricultural field, PBS is used as a biodegradable mulching film [30] PBS can be degraded by Amycolatopsis sp. HT-6 and Penicillium sp. strain 14-3.
Bioplastic panels, made from blends of natural fibers and biopolymers, provide an eco-friendly option for wall cladding and partitioning. These materials are lightweight, durable, and can be designed to mimic traditional materials like wood or stone. Formwork Bioplastics are increasingly used in formwork for concrete casting.
Interior carpeting of a car's door made by a biocomposite of hemp fibres and polyethylene. A biocomposite is a composite material formed by a matrix and a reinforcement of natural fibers. Environmental concern and cost of synthetic fibres have led the foundation of using natural fibre as reinforcement in polymeric composites.
Additionally, an eco-cost to value ratio can be useful [6] The goals are to improve the long term viability and quality of life for humans and the longevity of natural ecosystems. Sustainable packaging must meet the functional and economic needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs. [ 7 ]
Ecovative was developed from a university project of founders Eben Bayer and Gavin McIntyre. In their Inventor's Studio course at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute taught by Burt Swersey, Eben and Gavin developed and then patented a method of growing a mushroom-based insulation, initially called Greensulate before founding Ecovative Design in 2007.
