U.S. production of corn-based bottles

The bottled mineral water plant in Colorado, USA, recently announced that the bottles of bottled water produced by the factory are cornstarch as a raw material, and 100% can be decomposed without any impact on the environment. After the bottle made of corn is used, it can be completely decomposed after 70 days. The pure mineral water sold by the company took 10 years to find in the Rocky Mountains of the United States. Therefore, this kind of water must be matched with special bottles to stand on the highly competitive bottled water market in the United States.

A chemical company extracts a substance called corn emulsion from corn that is used to make bottles that can be recoated with water-repellent coatings. Such a bottle can be completely decomposed after 80 days under proper conditions. With the rise of global oil prices, containers made of corn starch will be favored for their environmental protection.

According to reports, there are currently 60 types of bottled water in the U.S. market. About 95 billion empty bottles are sent to waste disposal sites each year, and the use of decomposable packaging will have a positive effect on environmental protection.
