Shanghai restaurants have started using non-biodegradable plastic straws in response to the country's call to stop using plastics to reduce their impact on the environment, while many milk tea and coffee shops are using higher-cost paper straws, and some are offering lids that can be used for drinking directly instead.
In fact, biodegradable straws have long been on the market, but because their cost is generally three to five times higher than ordinary plastic straws, they are sold at a higher price, which has led to the abandonment of the use of biodegradable straws by many businesses out of cost considerations, and with the country's publicity on environmental protection and the With the national publicity on environmental protection and the enhancement of our national environmental awareness, the public has now accepted the concept of environmental protection, so now is the best time to implement the plastic ban.
With the introduction of plastic ban throughout the country, the market for plastic products has begun to shrink, and the demand for biodegradable plastic products has been greatly improved, the orders of major manufacturers showed explosive growth, many factories have been lined up for a long time after the order, this is due to the biodegradable straws have a certain degree of technicality, so you can produce the manufacturers is not too much, the existing market output And the market is in a state of oversupply, but I believe that with the increase in business investment these problems will be gradually resolved.
Degradable plastic is different from plastic products, it is in a specific environment only about ninety days will be completely degraded, the environment basically does not have any impact, and with the increase in market demand, the production of a substantial increase in production at the same time it will gradually reduce the cost of degradable plastic products will be able to completely replace the plastic products, China's environmental protection policy will also be a great result, the Shanghai market change is not an isolated case. Shanghai market change is not an isolated case, the restaurant and supermarkets in all parts of the country are upgrading the plastic limit, plastic products in most cities in the country have no market, and with the gradual progress of environmental protection, this phenomenon will occur in all parts of the country and change the status quo of China's environmental protection.
