The first ever biodegradable cling wrap film just launched in the UK. Following the successful introduction of BacoFoil 100% Recycled in 2009, the British manufacturer Baco just introduced this eco-friendly cling film that is claimed to break down completely in landfill within two years of deposit, thanks to the use of ultra low molecular weight (ULMWPE) polythene that has a prodegradant introduced during its production. As the UK Telegraph reports, though the waste caused by cling film is fairly slim in comparison with water bottles, or indeed thrown away food, a huge amount of the product is used every year. More than 1.2 billion meters, equating to 745,000 miles of cling film is used by households across Britain every year – enough to go around the circumference of the world 30 times over. This BioWrap has hit the stores priced at 1.75GBP for 40m.
