| The Oxo-Biodegradable Plastics Institute or OPI was established in the Fall of 2004 to support and promote the acceptance and development of the global oxo-biodegradable plastics industry. Oxo-biodegradable Plastics (OBP’s) are plastic materials, generally traditional polyolefins, that undergo a two step degradation, initially by an oxidative process that is promoted by the inclusion of catalytic additives and subsequently by biodegradation. Products made from these materials degrade under conditions of
sunlight (UV) heat, and/or mechanical stress to complete the cycle of resource utilization and return otherwise intractable plastics to their natural
origins.
