“Canada is taking ambitious action to reduce plastic pollution and waste, through a comprehensive approach that takes targeted action across the entire lifecycle of plastics. It aims to keep plastics in the economy and out of the environment, and reach zero plastic waste by 2030. As such, Canada has spearheaded the Ocean Plastics Charter since 2018, the only global framework that asks government, business and organization signatories to take a resource-efficient lifecycle management approach to plastic waste.”
Biodegradable Future’s biotechnology ensures that the additives make plastic and polymers react better with microbes in the ocean and in landfills allowing them to consume it while utilizing the plastic as a food source.
Every year, about 8 million tons of plastic waste escapes into the oceans from coastal nations. Some plastic products are estimated to take at least 400 years to break down. (Reference National Geographic’s)

About Biodegradable Future:
Biodegradable Future is a major distributor of organic additives that help plastic and polymer products biodegrade. The additives do not change the appearance or characteristics of a product, but simply enable microbes to consume the plastic in landfills, oceans and soils.
With the staggering number of plastic products that end up in landfills and the ocean every year, there is pressure for companies to clean up their business practices and find alternatives when it comes to packaging and product design. There are a number of reasons why these additives are an excellent option for any company who wants to be environmentally conscious while working with plastics and polymers.
Our additives maintaining the strength of the material, are cost-effective, easily implemented, versatile and have been tested and proven to work.
