To all companies working on plastic pollution measures: The possibilities for environmentally friendly plastic products expand with P-Life technology.
Our research team, in collaboration with Keio University, Ito En, Inc., SI Resin Industry Co., Ltd., and the Keio University Advanced Molecular Research Center, has successfully obtained a degradation bacterium for polypropylene (PP) that incorporates the biodegradable additive "P-Life." This research achievement represents an important step towards the microbial degradation treatment of non-degradable polyolefin-based plastics. Furthermore, the degradation bacteria attracted by the addition of P-Life are expected to effectively decompose and remove microplastics generated from polyolefin-based plastics, helping to alleviate their accumulation in the global environment. 【Features】 - Multiple degradation bacteria discovered that are compatible with P-Life added plastics - Capable of degrading a wide range of materials, including polypropylene and polyethylene - Safety of the products generated after plastic degradation being metabolized by microorganisms - Effectiveness of P-Life in promoting microbial degradation has been demonstrated *For more details, please refer to the materials.

basic information
In this study, plastic straws with P-Life added were used, and a clear decomposition effect was confirmed by microorganisms obtained from the soil. By combining P-Life with the decomposition bacteria discovered in this study, it is expected to improve the biodegradation efficiency of difficult-to-decompose plastics and make an important contribution to solving the plastic pollution problem. *For more details, please refer to the materials.
