Cellulose Acetate
Cellulose Acetate is a type of bioplastic made from plants (typically trees) that were grown in responsibly managed forests. Plant-derived cellulose (aka tree pulp) is processed into plastic, making the final product commercially compostable with a lower carbon footprint than traditional plastic. Plastic from plants instead of crude oil? Cool!
