what is it?

Ova Bags

Ova bags, represent a sustainable solution to the global plastic pollution crisis, offering a biodegradable alternative made from cassava, typically made from cassava starch, which is derived from the root of the cassava plant. These bags may also contain other natural ingredients such as PVA and Cooking Oil. a renewable and abundant natural resource.

These innovative bags not only reduce the environmental impact of traditional plastic bags but also contribute to preserving ecosystems and protecting wildlife by decomposing harmlessly in the environment. Ova bags, exemplify the potential of eco-friendly alternatives in combating plastic waste and promoting a more sustainable future for generations to come

Plastic Bags

Plastic bags, pose a significant threat to wildlife, as animals often mistake them for food or become entangled, resulting in injury or death. Unlike cassava bags, which decompose naturally, plastic bags persist in the environment for centuries, leaching harmful chemicals and disrupting ecosystems, contributing to a global crisis of pollution and habitat destruction.

Their widespread use exacerbates environmental degradation and climate change, highlighting the urgent need for sustainable alternatives to mitigate their harmful effects on both wildlife and the planet..
