Why We Use Corn Starch Packaging for Informed Pet Food

Why We Use Corn Starch Packaging for Informed Pet Food

At Informed Pet Food, we believe that every choice we make—whether it’s sourcing high-quality ingredients or selecting sustainable packaging—should reflect our commitment to pets, people, and the planet. That’s why we use corn starch-based packaging for our products. Unlike traditional plastic, which lingers in landfills for centuries, corn starch packaging is an eco-friendly, biodegradable alternative that aligns with our mission.

What is Corn Starch Packaging?

Corn starch packaging is made from renewable plant-based materials and breaks down naturally over time. Unlike petroleum-based plastics, which contribute to environmental pollution, corn starch packaging decomposes into organic matter, leaving no toxic residues behind.

Why We Chose Corn Starch Packaging

🌱 1. 100% Biodegradable & Compostable

Corn starch packaging can naturally decompose in composting environments, reducing plastic waste. This means fewer non-recyclable plastics ending up in landfills and oceans, helping to protect wildlife and ecosystems.

🌍 2. Lower Carbon Footprint

Compared to petroleum-based plastics, producing corn starch packaging uses less energy and releases fewer greenhouse gases. By choosing plant-based materials, we help reduce our carbon footprint and support a more sustainable future.

🔄 3. Safe & Non-Toxic

Since corn starch packaging is made from natural materials, it doesn’t leach harmful chemicals into food or the environment. This makes it a safer option for pet food storage—because what touches your dog’s food matters just as much as the food itself!

🐾 4. Supporting a Circular Economy

Traditional plastics take hundreds of years to break down, contributing to global waste problems. Corn starch packaging, on the other hand, returns to nature without leaving microplastics behind. By using it, we’re actively reducing pollution and encouraging more brands to embrace sustainable solutions.

A Greener Future for Pets & the Planet

At Informed Pet Food, we believe that knowing better means doing better—not just in what we feed our dogs but in how we package our products. Choosing corn starch-based packaging is just one of the ways we’re working toward a healthier planet while keeping our furry companions happy and nourished.

Thank you for being part of our journey toward sustainability, transparency, and better pet nutrition! 🌿🐶
