Nearly 40 billion plastic utensils are used in the US alone, per year. These utensils are made from hard plastic that will take thousands of years to decompose in a landfill but Seymour, Indiana-based Cereplast may have just the solution. Cereplast Inc. designs and manufactures proprietary bio-based, renewable plastics which are used as substitutes for petroleum-based plastics in all major converting processes–such as injection molding, thermoforming, blow molding and extrusions. Bioplastics begins with the extraction of sugars and starches from plants like corn, tapioca and potatoes. The sugars are then either fermented or converted into a biopolymer, which is the basic building block of bioplastics. Frederic Scheer, CEO of Cereplast, further explains the process of this great discovery.
