Woah, I know they are targeting this for packaging but I hope that this holds up well for uses in 3D printing.
PLA is already the go-to 3D printing filament for a lot of people and making it actually compostable at home and not “bio-degradable asterix, in an industrial compost” could go a long way to alleviating the waste from failed prints, skirts, brims, support material, etc…
Hopefully it’s not used to speed up consumerism… Your plastic goods decay and need to be replaced…
