As the world shifts toward eco-friendly alternatives to single-use plastics, PLA straws have emerged as a leading sustainable solution. Short for polylactic acid, PLA is a bio-based thermoplastic derived from renewable plant resources, primarily corn starch, sugarcane, or cassava. These natural materials undergo a two-step process: first, sugars are fermented to produce lactic acid, which is then polymerized into PLA resin—a versatile material that can be molded into durable, functional straws.

In China, where environmental initiatives are driving a rapid transition from plastic to biodegradable products, PLA has become the dominant material for bio-degradable straws. Unlike traditional plastic straws that persist in landfills for centuries, PLA straws break down completely under industrial composting conditions (typically within 3–6 months), leaving behind only water, carbon dioxide, and organic matter. This makes them a key player in reducing plastic pollution while maintaining the convenience of single-use items.
