ABOUT BONNIE BIO
Bonnie Biodegradable (Pty) Ltd T/A Bonnie Bio endeavors to make a difference with our corn starch certified compostable and biodegradable products. Our range includes multi-purpose bags (good for doggy doo, used nappies, sanitary and medical waste), refuse bags, single-use carrier bags as well as our PLA straws of various sizes.
Our products are all made from natural corn and vegetable ingredients with no chemical additives to ensure non-toxicity and allow for complete composting and biodegradability, yet they are as sturdy as traditional plastic. They are incredibly environmentally friendly as they break down back to CO2, water and biomass, which are renewable resources and they don’t leach any toxins into the environment whilst breaking down. We even use soy-based ink to print, which is eco-friendly.

COMPOSTABILITY CERTIFICATION / ACCREDITATIONS
To confirm BPI Compostable accreditation, please click here. These bags are made from corn starch, which allows them to be compostable and biodegradable as per our BPI accreditation. These bags have been manufactured to comply with the following composting & biodegradable standards: EN 13432 | AS 5810 | ASTM D6400 ASTM D6868. These bags break down due to the exposure of oxygen, heat, UV light & microbial activities. When these bags biodegrade / decompose, they create carbon dioxide, biomass and water, which present no danger to the environment. No toxins are leached into the environment whilst decomposing. The ink used to print on these bags is a soy-based ink.
The use of plastic straws has been a hot topic recently after being banned in numerous places around the world. Our PLA straws are a great alternative to plastic, making them an ideal & environmentally friendly replacement.

Since the invention of petroleum-based plastic, around 165 million tonnes of it has been reported to find its way in our oceans. Estimates suggest that more than 8 million tonnes of plastic currently end up in our oceans each year and that number is growing.
The research shows that up to 50% of plastic is used only once and then thrown away and that we’re only recycling 9% of the plastic we’re using. Traditional petroleum-based plastic not only takes up to 500 years to decompose but also leaches toxic chemicals into the environment while decomposing. We are slowly ruining our planet and it’s time to change this.
Bonnie Bio wants to make a difference. We believe that the use of our certified compostable and biodegradable products will contribute to the sustainability of the planet for our current and future generations by offering alternative options to petroleum-based plastics, without compromising the useful need for plastic-type materials.
Our products are toxin-free & environmentally kind.

CORN STARCH PLA PRODUCTS EXPLAINED
As the name implies, corn starch biodegradable & compostable products are made from corn starch. PLA (polyactic acid) is typically made from the sugars in corn starch (as is the case with Bonnie Bio’s certified compostable & biodegradable plastic alternatives range), cassava or sugarcane. It is biodegradable, carbon-neutral and edible. To transform corn into plastic, corn kernels are immersed in sulfur dioxide and hot water, where its components break down into starch, protein, and fiber.
The starch is comprised of long chains of carbon molecules, similar to the carbon chains in plastic from fossil fuels. Biodegradable plastics take three to six months to decompose fully. That’s much quicker than synthetic counterparts
that can take several hundred years. Exactly how long a biodegradable product takes to break down depends
on various factors, such as temperature, the amount of moisture and oxygen present.

PLASTIC IN OUR OCEANS
Another great reason to use a corn starch & compostable alternative
Did you know that plastic pollution doesn’t just hurt marine species? The plastic they consume releases toxins which are absorbed into their bodies. These toxins are passed up the food chain and can have horrifying effects on humans too. Exposure to these toxins has been linked with cancer, birth defects, impaired immunity, endocrine disruption and other ailments.
