		<description>We carry two types of biodegradable bags.  One is made of plastic that has an additive in it that helps it disintegrate over time and the other is made of tapioca and is natural and biodegrades on its own.

EPI develops, manufactures, distributes and sells: (a) chemical additives to manufacturers of finished plastic products in the packaging, agricultural and composting industries and (b) degradable landfill cover and wrap systems to customers in the solid waste management industry. The principal chemical additives sold by EPI are proprietary oxo-biodegradable plastic additives (Totally Degradable Plastic Additives™ or “TDPA™”) and speciality chemical foaming and purging agents (“CFA”). The EPI group of companies has been working since the early 1990’s in developing an affordable additive technology to help manage some of the environmental issues that derive from the excellent long term stability of single use plastic products. EPI’s Totally Degradable Plastic Additives (TDPA™) technology accelerates the rate at which the most common plastics degrade by several orders of magnitude. TDPA™ incorporated plastics disintegrate and ultimately biodegrade under the normal conditions of disposal for the products.

Ecoplas®, our exclusive polybags are composed of mostly tapioca, a renewable, sustainable source.  No greenhouse gases are created during production and no toxic gases are generated during the incineration of ecoplas bags.  Ecoplas can degrade in various conditions as it is biodegradable, photodegradable, and physically degradable.  The result is a beautiful, silky poly!</description>

		<description>Regarding the eco bags and claims that they biodegrade - do they contain no plastic whatsoever so that no plastic residue of any size, no matter how infinitely small would remain. Could you clarify please. Which products match this.</description>
