WHAT IS PLA?What is PLA?PLA stands for Polylactic acid and is made from corn starch. Lactic acid is made from Dextrose by fermentation. Dextrose is made from corn starch, and corn starch is made from carbon dioxide and water. PLA can be formed into a variety of products.Corn plastic products look and feel like traditional petroleum-based plastic, but they are biodegradable and compostable. Regular plastic is made from petroleum that is pollutant and have toxins; while PLA is from derived from corn based resin, which is non-toxic and renewable resource. 2  Regular plastic takes approximately 400 years to degrade, leaving toxicity in the environment.
