Eco-Peg - Fully Biodegradable

Eco-Peg™ is a new, fully biodegradable, fixing peg which takes advantage of the latest developments in biodegradable polymer technology to produce a landscape mat anchor peg with the highest environmental credentials.

Features/Benefits

• Soil Biodegradable
• Recycled polymer
• Serrated edges for extra grip
• Strong

Eco-Peg™ contains a very special new additive, which intensifies the ability of plastics to biodegrade, in both aerobic and anaerobic environments, through the presence of micro-organism activity. Whether it is in compost, marine, landfill or soil environments the pegs fully break down within 5 years into CO2, biomass and water, returning to nature without leaving any harmful residues. Eco-Peg™ is a genuinely biodegradable product and should not be confused with oxo-degradable plastics that just fragment into smaller pieces through exposure to sunlight resulting in harmful micro-plastics rather than breaking down at the molecular or polymer level like biodegradable and compostable plastics.

The resulting micro-plastics are left in the environment indefinitely until they eventually fully break down. Eco-Peg™ is made in the UK using a unique bio-polymer compound which contains 90% recycled consumer plastics enhanced with 1% of special additive. 

The factory uses efficient production techniques that result in near zero waste and have invested in a vast solar panel system that powers their machines, factory and office space, to significantly reduce their carbon footprint.
