It's no secret that plastic production and waste have reached alarming levels. In 2019 alone, a staggering 350 million tonnes of plastic were produced globally, contributing to a cumulative 8.3 billion tonnes of plastic waste generated since the 1950s. A significant 40% of this plastic is utilized for packaging, including the traditional plastic bags often seen in the dry cleaning industry.
Traditional dry cleaning practices have long relied on single-use plastic bags for wrapping garments. Unfortunately, these bags quickly become part of the plastic pollution problem, contributing to the degradation of our landfills, oceans, and ecosystems. As these bags break down over time, they transform into insidious microplastics that infiltrate our soil, water bodies, and even enter the food chain, posing risks to both the environment and human health.
