Biodegradable packaging is packaging made from materials that can be broken down and decomposed by bacteria, fungi, and other living organisms. This type of packaging is becoming increasingly popular due to its environmental benefits, as it is a sustainable alternative to plastic packaging that can be difficult to recycle. Biodegradable packaging is usually made from plant-based materials, such as cornstarch, paper, and bamboo, and is designed to decompose quickly and safely, without releasing toxic substances into the environment.
