ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. -- Bio-Tec Environmental, the leading manufacturer of biodegradable plastic additives, unveils an exclusive with Concept Amenities Pty Ltd to create a range of biodegradable hotel guest amenity packaging.

 environment. It is a safe, non-toxic, organic-based additive that allows microbes to break down hydrocarbons into fatty acids then to biomass. Plastic material made with EcoPure[TM] biodegrades in landfills in just years rather than several centuries, allowing the manmade polymers to return to the cycle of nature.

EcoPure[TM] is easy to use. It is added in during production just as color concentrates are, allowing the use of the same resin and same process without the need for re-engineering. The final product has the same characteristics as the original made without EcoPure[TM], but it is now more environmentally friendly.

By adding EcoPure[TM] to its packaging, Concept Amenities Pty Ltd is at the forefront in creating products that show a social conscience. Now both the products and the containers they come in are environmentally safe. They are known as "ERPs" or "Environmentally Responsible Products."
