Plastic never leaves us; it languishes in landfills for centuries. It enters our soil, waterways and oceans, breaking down into tiny but ever-present pieces. Beeswax is naturally biodegradable and compostable. After deep concerns about the lasting impact of plastic on our planet, HONGHE started making beeswax packaging.
We set out to find alternatives, and we knew from the beginning that anything we made had to be biodegradable. That’s because we believe in considering the entire life cycle of the products we produce and consume, from their creation and manufacture to their ultimate end.

Biodegradability
This is where biodegradability comes into play: biodegradable products can be easily returned to the earth. It’s a technology as old as time, where everything in nature returns to nature over time. There is no complicated recycling process and no need to send your Beeswax Wrap to a special facility.Beeswax Wrap is made from four simple ingredients that come from the earth and are designed to be returned to the earth.
It is important to note that what you do with naturally biodegradable materials matters. Modern landfills are tightly lined and packed, creating an oxygen-starved environment where even food can take decades to decompose. A study conducted by the University of Arizona found hot dogs, corn cobs and grapes from 25 years ago, as well as newspapers that were still readable 50 years ago. According to researchers working on climate change solutions, food waste that breaks down in landfills also produces methane gas, which has 34 times the greenhouse effect of carbon dioxide.

Composting
That’s why composting is so important; food waste, yard waste and other organic materials contain valuable nutrients that can be returned to the soil as they decompose. the same is true of Beeswax Wrap. When your wraps reach the end of their useful life – usually after about a year of regular use and proper maintenance in your kitchen – you can use the wraps as natural fire starters, or you can add them directly to your backyard compost pile. With just a little time and the right environmental conditions, your Bee’s Wrap will break down into nutrient-rich compost that you can use in your backyard garden.
