ECM BioFilms, Inc. markets additives to plastic product manufacturers which produce biodegradable plastic products that can be priced competitively with, and have the same mechanical characteristics as, their traditional non-degradable products.

Plastic products made with ECM additives:
     · Fully biodegrade in 9 months to 5 years
     · Fully biodegrade when disposed of in a biodegrading environment,        either anaerobically or aerobically:
            · in landfills
            · in compost (backyard compost or commercial facilities)
            · if buried or littered in the ground
            · in agricultural and erosion-control settings
     · Are recyclable
     · Can be made with recycled resins
     · Do not use heat, light or mechanical stress to break them down
     · Do not require special handling
       (unlike PLA and oxodegradable products)
     · Do not contain heavy metals (unlike most oxodegradable products)
