Headquartered in Dallas, TX but with facilities in Arkansas, with a focus on development of environmentally and socially responsible alternative materials Cyclewood has identified a patented technology that creates a viable biodegradable and compostable thermoplastic. patent-protected biodegradable and compostable thermoplastic can be applied in a variety of commercial plastics, including cups, plates, and bags. The benefit of using thistechnology is that in approximately 150 days the firm's thermoplastic breaks down into humus, improving soil structure and leaving a cleaner environment. The firm's thermoplastic is converted into everyday-use plastic bag, the XyloBagTM. With government regulation restricting the use of harmful high-density polyethylene bags, the XyloBagTM provides retailers with a viable, cheap bag alternative.
