MONTREAL - ECO II Manufacturing is proud to announce the launching of a very new line of bags which are 100% oxo-biodegradable. The main quality of these products is that they are totally degradable in less than 2 years at a temperature of 45-C, which is the average temperature of landfills, in accordance with ASTM D6954-04. In ideal landfill conditions, these products disintegrate in as little as 12 weeks. The ordinary plastic bag, takes over 400 years.

The Canadian company ECO II Manufacturing has introduced a new pro-degrading additive which enables oxo-biodegradable bags to be environmentally friendly while keeping their quality of being strong, watertight and durable. Being technically more complex to process, the majority of available ecological starch-based bags are more expensive to manufacture, and lack quality and tensile strength.
