• As a community, we have developed a habit of
  drinking with a straw for convenience. Single-use
  plastics are, to put it simply, convenient. But
  our ecosystem pays a heavy price for this
  comfort.
• One of the main components of landfills is
  single-use plastic. They are astounding in their
  sheer number. Not only that, but when they do
  disintegrate, they do so far more slowly and
  produce dangerous microplastics that could
  contaminate soil and water. To reduce plastic
  waste, cutting back on plastic consumption is the
  first step.

What is the plastic ban in India?

• India has put a statewide ban on the production,
  import, distribution, sale, and use of different
  single-use plastic items due to the amount of
  pollution and the harm it causes to terrestrial
  and aquatic ecosystems.
• Contrary to common misconception, this was not a
  last-minute choice rather, it was taken in
  accordance with a national resolution adopted
  during the fourth United Nations Environment
  Assembly.
• One should grasp single-use plastics in order to
  better comprehend what the ban is on.

What are single-use plastics (SUP)?

• This prohibition (effective July 1, 2022) targets
  single-use plastics in the nation that have a
  high risk for littering and poor utility. These
  plastics are disposable after only one usage, as
  their name implies.
• Since 1970, these compounds, which are primarily
  made from petrochemicals or chemicals derived
  from fossil fuels, have changed the demand among
  manufacturers.
• India has outlawed 21 different sorts of SUP,
  such as plastic straws, plates, silverware, and
  earbuds with plastic sticks. The government
  specifically targeted plastics with little to no
  potential for recycling with this ban.

Products by Cosmo Films

• Although it makes sense to classify all plastics
  together due to confusion, Cosmo Films' products
  are exempt from this restriction.
• Our offerings are films made from BOPP
  (bi-axially oriented polypropylene). They are
  also recyclable, which is a distinguishing
  quality that sets them apart from the single-use
  plastics group.
• Cosmo Films has always concentrated on producing
  environmentally friendly substitutes because it
  is aware of the harm that plastics cause to our
  environment. Our special variations, such the
  HST-1 (OBD), are a class of oxo-biodegradable
  printing pouching film.
• We have also been collaborating with some of the
  top international companies to provide solutions
  for structural optimization and recyclability.
