Colombia-headquartered freight carrier Avianca Cargo has stopped using conventional plastics in its pallet covers, instead turning to biodegradable plastics. The biodegradable plastic now being used is produced by BioNatur Plastics. It is manufactured with a 1% load of an organic, food-safe proprietary additive that allows anaerobic bacteria to digest the plastic within a landfill site.

Plastic, once hailed as a revolutionary material for its versatility and convenience, now stands at the center of one of the most pressing environmental challenges of our time. From polluting our oceans to clogging landfills, the environmental impact of plastic waste is undeniable. As the world grapples with the urgency of sustainability, the plastics industry finds itself at a crossroads, forced to confront its role in the global crisis. In this blog post, we will explore the current sustainability challenges facing the plastics industry and examine how innovations such as BioNatur's landfill biodegradable plastics are providing much-needed solutions.

In an era where environmental concerns are at the forefront of global discussions, industries across the board are reevaluating their practices to minimize their carbon footprint. The cargo industry, responsible for transporting goods worldwide, is no exception. At BioNatur Plastics, we believe that sustainability is not just a trend but a necessity for the future of our planet. In this blog post, we explore the innovative solutions that are revolutionizing sustainability in cargo transportation.
