Our relationship with plastic is like a strong bond even though we all want to get rid of it. Meanwhile, a revolution is quietly being unfolded in the heart of Hyderabad. It has the potential to reshape the call and free us from the impacts of plastic pollution. Innovative startup Bioreform is offering a glimmer of hope.
Bioreform has taken up the challenge of creating eco-friendly and biodegradable bags from corn waste. The bags are an alternative to the plastic ones and simultaneously are a statement of commitment to the environment. Plastic usually takes centuries to decompose. The bags of Bioreform break down naturally within months and leave no toxic residue behind.
The journey of Bioreform can be considered as a true example of innovation. Its product can soon address a needed global challenge successfully. The founders have recognized the call for sustainable alternatives to plastics and thereafter developed a product that could be effective as well as affordable. Their bags are made from natural materials and are biodegradable. The bags are compostable too.
The bags can be used for shopping, for packaging and for several more purposes. The bags are to become a practical alternative to plastic bags for consumers as well as for businesses.
However, the path to sustainability is not free of challenges. The benefits are clear, but the cost of production is still a hurdle. Bioreform is working in the direction to reduce the cost of production. If things turn up favorable, the bags can become accessible to the mass. However, the efforts are a true reminder to us that a shift is necessary towards sustainable products. The benefits of course may outweigh the costs in the long run.
