Balrampur Chini Mills Ltd ( (IN:BALRAMCHIN) ) has provided an announcement.
Balrampur Chini Mills announced results from a new study by a premier government-backed technical institution showing that PLA microplastics degrade almost completely in Indian soil within 180 days, dropping from 287 to 18 particles per kilogram. The study also found that PLA leaves no harmful heavy metal residues, supports earthworm activity, and behaves differently from conventional plastics, which showed negligible breakdown.
The findings bolster the credibility and environmental case for Balrampur Chini’s PLA vertical as a sustainable alternative to traditional plastics, potentially strengthening its position in the fast-developing bioplastics market. For regulators, brands, and farmers concerned about plastic pollution and soil health, the data provide scientific support for wider adoption of PLA-based materials in India’s plastics and packaging ecosystem.
