How are packages made from biodegradable materials?

Biodegradable packages are made from materials that can break down naturally through biological processes. Common biodegradable materials include plant-based plastics, such as polylactic acid (PLA), and natural substances like paper, cardboard, and biopolymers derived from starch or cellulose. The production process typically involves sourcing renewable resources, processing them into usable forms, and shaping them into packaging products. These materials are designed to decompose in composting or natural environments, reducing environmental impact compared to traditional plastics.
