Opening a new packet of Twinings tea today, I noticed it was covered in a gold shiny wrapping with the words biodegradable on it.
Cool, now you can put the wrapping as well as the tea bag on the compost heap!
The NatureFlex TM film is made by Innovia Films and is said to break down in a home compost bin in a matter of weeks and has been well received in Which? Gardening magazine.
Makes you think that now that technology is available, why don’t more companies follow suit?
