Replacing Single-Use Plastics

Single-use plastic bags have provided our society with a convenient way to carry our groceries, or pick up after our animals. Unfortunately, they have also caused a great deal of pollution to our environment. Of the plastic bags used, Only about 9% of this plastic has been recycled, 12% has been burned and the remaining 79% has ended up in landfills or the environment.  8,000,000 tons of plastic waste makes it's way into our ocean each year. 

The Solution To Single-Use Plastics

At beyond GREEN, we researched the damage single-use plastics cause, and manufactured a solution. A 100% Compostable Single-Use Bag made from three main ingredients: maize flour, vegetable glycerin, and biodegradable polyester. These bags are set to decompose within 3 – 6 months.

We Need Your Help

Competing with large single-use plastic manufacturers can be challenging. beyond GREEN will be looking to raise $50,000.00 in funding to help assist in development of our new proprietary raw material which will further aid them on their mission to reduce single-use plastic pollution globally. This material does not contain any plastics such as PE/PLE/PLA etc.  We would still be using the funds towards R&D even if we do not reach our goal. Each dollar helps us get closer in reducing single-use plastic pollution.
