UK companies fully implement PLA debit cards
There are at least 164 million plastic cards in circulation in the UK. Almost all plastic cards are made of non-biodegradable materials. These cards generally end up in landfills or end up in the ocean if not handled properly try.
Go Henry, a fintech company that provides prepaid cards for children aged 6 to 18, recently said it was ditching traditional plastic cards and replacing them with biodegradable materials.
In fact, in 2020, GoHenry has already entered the field of non-plastic cards, launching a bank card with a bio-based content of 82%. The card material uses compostable polylactic acid (PLA) - derived from plants, polylactic acid is widely used in disposable Tableware, packaging, 3D printing, medical materials and other industries.
