It is compostable and the most used type of biodegradable plastic derived from renewable resources such as corn starch, tapioca roots, chips, starch, or sugarcane. These renewable raw materials make PLA non-toxic and environmentally friendly. Plastic products may take up to a thousand years to degrade, while PLA products biodegrade within three-to-six months in an industrial composting system. It is largely used in the packaging industry because it does not have a negative impact on food prices or its supply. Government policies on use of conventional plastics and growing awareness for environmental safety drives the PLA market globally.
