Transitions2earth™ with EcoPure® is the biodegradable cutlery and serving ware that biodegrades in a landfill. No special “end-of-life management required.” Because, over 90% of all plastic cutlery ends up in the garbage and ultimately a landfill, Transitions2earth™ is a long term solution for the millions of pieces, of single use cutlery used every day that are not routed to a certified and industrial composting facility. (There are less than 200 certified facilities in the United States)

Transitions2earth™ biodegradable cutlery looks, feels and performs just like high quality plastic cutlery including, resistance to severe heat. Forget everything you know about biodegradable cutlery and move over to Transitions2earth™, the intelligent choice for single use biodegradable cutlery.

 

 

Third party ASTM D5511 testing data shows that cutlery with EcoPure® allows microbial activity to break down the molecular structure of polystyrene, polyethylene and polypropylene at levels up to 100 times faster than without the additive. The biodegradation process begins when the plastic enters into a landfill. The microbes colonize on the outer surface of the plastic and begin to digest and break it down. Since Transitions2earth™ cutlery with EcoPure® works via microbes, it is distinct from other technologies which use heat, moisture, mechanical methods or UV.

Once in a landfill our products begin biodegradation and take a few years (a blink of an eye in typical degradation time) to completely biodegrade. Transitions2earth™ cutlery and servingware with EcoPure® looks, performs, and feels like high quality plastic cutlery and easily withstands the most severe heat tests.   Doing the right thing has never been easier.

 

 

Transitions2earth™ continues its commitment to responsible innovation by developing the next generation SuperDegradable™ cutlery and serving ware for the food service industry. Our new product line is manufactured with EcoPure® additive that causes the cutlery to biodegrade very quickly in an active and enclosed landfill. This product provides the food service and grocery industry with confidence, that, even in less than ideal disposal situations, decomposing in a few years is a reality.
