All Becothings products have been designed to be as environmentally friendly as possible. Things like pet bowls, pet litter scoops and pet food scoops are usually made of plastics that end up in landfill sites. Becothings aim to have as little environmental impact as possible by using the right materials and the right design.
Unique Plant Fibres
The most important material in the Becothings range is a plastic replacement made from natural plant fibres. It is actually a biocomposite which means it is a mix of biodegradable materials.
Around 80% of the material is made up of fibres from bamboo and rice husks. Rice husks are a by-product of rice production, so it is a great material to use as it is normally thrown away! Although you might picture bamboo as tall thin trees, it is actually a breed of grass and so grows incredibly fast. This means all the bamboo Becothings use can be sustainably grown.
Both these materials are mixed with a resin created from amino acids. It is this resin that bonds all the fibres together. Importantly it also allows the mix to break down. When you place a plant fibre product in warm, damp conditions, like a compost heap or buried in the ground, the resin will start to break down. This in-turn allows the fibres to break down, eventually the product will fully biodegrade away.
