Solving the Plastic Problem Starts with this Straw

Watch below to see phade, marine biodegradable, home and compostable straws breakdown in a controlled marine environment in just 58 days (vs. 73,049 days for a traditional plastic straw).

Sustainability is Serious Business

Plastic waste pollution is a major problem. Until we can better manage our waste, we’re targeting the waste itself by changing how it’s made. Our priority is to replace petroleum-based plastic straws with an effective, sustainable solution, so we worked with independent labs and the leading third-party certification programs to verify our claims.

phade® straws are the best of both worlds. They look, feel, and function like traditional plastic straws, but when composted, completely biodegrade. If a phade® straw were to unfortunately end up in the ocean, it would sink and biodegrade in a few months, compared with the 200+ years it takes for petroleum-based plastics to go away, protecting millions of marine species in the process.

Try phade® straws for yourself. The sea turtles will thank you.
