EcoWood GreenTech is an eco-friendly alternative to traditional plastic cutlery, made from a bioplastic blend of sawdust and homopolymer polypropylene. Sawdust, a timber industry byproduct, is rich in cellulose and lignin, making it suitable for bioplastic production. The product is created using extrusion and injection molding processes. Testing shows EcoWood GT has higher tensile strength and impact resistance than standard plastic, and it decomposes faster, as proven by thermogravimetric analysis. These results highlight its environmental benefits and performance, demonstrating that EcoWood GT is a sustainable, biodegradable option that matches or surpasses the quality of market cutlery.
