BioP - From plate to earthworm and back again!
BioP - Who Are We?
BioP is a leading manufacturer of high-quality, eco-friendly plastic products. Committed to innovation and sustainability, we specialize in creating solutions from recycled and biodegradable materials. Our advanced manufacturing facilities ensure the production of products that meet the highest industry standards, while our focus on customer satisfaction drives us to deliver exceptional service.
Sustainable Product Design
Eco-Friendly Materials
We use only sustainable materials, such as bamboo and recycled plastics, in our product designs. By using these materials, we reduce waste and promote a healthier planet.
Energy-Efficient Designs
Our product designs are optimized for energy efficiency, reducing the amount of power needed to operate them. This reduces carbon emissions and helps to conserve our natural resources.
Circular Economy Practices
We utilize circular economy practices in our product design, which means that we consider the entire lifecycle of our products, from raw materials to end-of-life disposal. This approach helps to minimize waste and extend the life of our products.
Minimal Packaging
We use minimal packaging in our product designs, reducing the amount of waste that is generated during production and shipping. Our products are shipped in biodegradable and recyclable materials.
Local Sourcing
We source our materials locally whenever possible, reducing the carbon emissions associated with transportation. This also supports local businesses and helps to build a stronger community.
Design for Disassembly
We design our products with disassembly in mind, making it easier to repair, reuse, or recycle them at the end of their life. This reduces waste and helps to conserve our natural resources.

Compostable Straws
BioP produces biodegradable and compostable straws, designed to reduce carbon emissions and to meet market demand. These straws, made from sustainable materials like paper, bamboo, or compostable plastics, are available in various lengths and diameters, and are a solution to plastic pollution.
How long can we ignore this global problem?
Compostable Cutlery
South Africa is addressing its global mismanagement of plastic waste by manufacturing biodegradable and compostable granules for various products, including cutlery, straws, and mulch film. These products are 100% biodegradable, compostable, and plastic-free, meeting international standards such as ASTM D6400, ASTM D53
Our farmers need to step up as well!
Biodegradable. Agricultural Mulch
Biodegradable plastic mulch, made from plant-based materials, is a sustainable alternative to petroleum-based plastics. Over 4 million tons of plastic mulch are used annually, leading to 'greenwashing'. BioP's biodegradable mulch, designed to last 6-18 months, decays rapidly and returns to soil without microplastics.
