In recent epochs, the realm of biodegradable products has experienced a notable surge, primarily driven by the growing global awareness surrounding ecological imperatives and the need for sustainable consumer practices. Biodegradable items, distinguished by their innate ability to naturally degrade into environmentally benign components, have gained remarkable prominence across diverse sectors including food packaging. This shift towards ecologically viable alternatives is rooted in perceptive consumer preferences to reduce their carbon footprint and counteract the widespread proliferation of plastic waste. Despite these encouraging trends, the market faces multifaceted challenges such as higher production costs compared to conventional counterparts, variations in biodegradability and compostability profiles among different product categories, a lack of consistent regulatory frameworks, and the burden of deceptive marketing claims, commonly referred to as green washing.
