How sustainable is cellophane?
Cellular glass is 100 percent based on the renewable raw material wood and is therefore the sustainable alternative to petroleum-based plastics. Especially if, as in our case, the wood used comes from certified sustainable forestry. In addition, uncoated cellophane is both biodegradable and compostable. Basically, cellophane beats its petroleum-based competitors by far in terms of sustainability. Unfortunately, cellulose glass / cellophane production is neither state supported nor particularly cheap. Overall, this leads to a drop in the demand for cell glass and thus strengthens the demand for the more environmentally harmful, petroleum-based products./p>
What now?
If you buy (our) cellophane products, this is the only way we can ensure that demand and thus production will increase again and that the more environmentally friendly alternatives will also be subsidized by the state.
