Embodiment Construction

[0039]Embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to a non-woven biodegradable and compostable bag for use as a recyclable and disposable carry bag. However, it should be appreciated that embodiments of the present invention can be used to provide a non-woven biodegradable product which can be used for any other suitable applications such as secondary food packaging including take-away food packaging or the like. It will be appreciated that variations may need to be made as required.

[0040]Referring to FIG. 1, the non-woven biodegradable bag 100 is provided in accordance with embodiments of the present invention. According to some embodiments of the invention, the non-woven biodegradable bag is manufactured from a completely biodegradable Polylactide (PLA) non-woven material. PLA is a high crystalloid and linear polymer which satisfies the two primary conditions for wiredrawing to make a non-woven material. PLA or its derivatives, such as L and D type or cop...

Abstract

The present invention provides a bag made of a non-woven biodegradable material comprising a body portion having at least one side wall and a bottom joined together to define a storage space therebetween and an opening at the top of the body portion, wherein the bag is biodegradable and non-toxic to the environment

Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION[0001]The present invention relates generally to disposable biodegradable products. In particular, but not exclusively, the present invention relates to a non-woven biodegradable bag.BACKGROUND TO THE INVENTION[0002]Biodegradable and compostable bags are made of polymers that degrade, or decompose, when exposed to microorganisms in the presence of air, water and / or sunlight. Biodegradable and compostable bags in the marketplace are typically made from resins containing polyethylene, polyester and their blends with starches and / or heavy metals such as cadmium, lead and beryllium.[0003]Whilst current biodegradable and compostable bags provide a solution less harmful to the environment, current biodegradable and regular disposable plastic bags require a similar amount of energy, natural resources and costs to produce. Also mixing of biodegradable and compostable bags in recycling systems with conventional plastic bags creates a strong problem and can render entire...
