JUTE POLY BAG:
When the world is anxious about ecological impact of polyethene and polypropylene bags right then people are going to get a solution for it from Bangladesh. Bangladeshi scientist Dr. Mubarak Ahmad Khan invented poly bags which can be made from jute. Which is named 'SHONALI BAG' by the prime minister of Bangladesh. This bag looks like normal plastic bags and works much better than that.
ECO FRIENDLY:
This is biodegradable and eco-friendly poly bag.
The bag looks like polyethene bag but actually not. Strength is also about to same of polyethene bag, 100% eco-friendly, sustainable, recyclable and will be mingled with soil within only 3-4 months. Used colors are also food grade.
Cost and ingredient :
It is a fare question that how costly this bags are??? Because eco friendly poly bags were invented before this. But all of them are very high at price.
But inventor said that when it will start its industrial production, its price will be very low and close to now using poly bags. As Bangladesh has not started producing it industrially we cant say the exact price. But the main ingridient of SHONALI BAG is jute which is a very cheap thing in Bangladesh. Farmers here cultivate a lot of jute every year. So the price is expected to be very low.
EXTRAORDINARY USES:
We know that it is harmful to store or carry foods in plastic poly bags but it is not in case of SHONALI BAG. So it can be used to wrap ice cream, other foods, garment products ect.
Say no to plastic and to poly bags made of plastic.
In one minute, one million plastic bags are in use around the world and in Europe, plastic carrier bags are produced 3.4 million tons in a year. If we could make a mount made with plastics that world produced till now, it would be bigger than the Mount Everest. And we all know that plastic is not nature friendly. And it never decomposes. Normal polyethene takes even 2oo years to be mingled with soil. We all know the bad effects of plastics.
So we should stop using plactic bags now. And wait for Shonali bags to come on market.
