Russia's Evrobalt plans to start production of biodegradable PE in 2008 at an investment outlay of €200,000. The plant will be located in Saint-Petersburg.
With the help of special additives, the plant will produce PE that self-decomposes in about 1-5 years as against the normal decomposition time of 100 years.
