FAQ
1Can Natureflex biodegrade on the shelf?
NatureFlex grades are very stable and will not biodegrade or show any loss in mechanical properties on the shelf. Biodegradation will only be initiated in a soil, compost or waste-water environment where micro-organisms are present.
2Will NatureFlex biodegrade in sea water?
The majority of NatureFlex grades will biodegrade in sea water. A number of grades have been tested in accordance with ASTM D7081-05.
3What is Anaerobic digestion?
A series of biological processes in which microorganisms break down biodegradable material in the absence of oxygen. One of the end products is biogas, which is combusted to generate electricity and heat, or can be processed into renewable natural gas and transportation fuels.
