What is PLA Cup?
PLA is an abbreviation for polylactic Acid. It is a bioplastic derived from renewable resources such as cornstarch and sugarcane. It is a core component in the manufacturing of biodegradable plastic cups, which is due to the fact that it fully breaks down in suitable composting conditions. It retains all the favorable properties of plastic without the dangerous consequences associated with plastics which makes it a top choice in biodegradable plastic cups with lids.
