A Chandigarh(India) NGO has tied up with a South Korean scientist who has developed the technology of manufacturing eco-friendly poly-bags from corn to produce them in India.

These corn polymer products look and feel just like regular plastics and polythene but they are 100 per cent biodegradable and compostable according a Scientist.

They are very safe for environment and even if one eats them by mistake, then there would be no harm as it is easily digestible. This polymer can be used for making cups, cutlery, food containers, trash bags and carry bags.

At present, more than 5,000 cities in Europe and few Asian and American countries are using similar technology.
