Overview
Solegear engineers bioplastics that are 100% non-toxic and compostable, helping to make our communities safer and healthier for everyone. If a plastic is just recyclable, and only recyclable, it still eventually turns into waste. Solegear's bioplastic solutions turn back into the natural components from which they came.
