Ending Microplastic Invasion: From Health Concerns to Green Solutions

Introduction: The Invisible Threat Stirring Our Immune SystemsWhen seasonal allergies recur frequently and unexplained skin itching becomes normal, many people blame pollen and dust mites. However, a deeper "invisible driver" is being revealed by the scientific community—microplastics. These tiny particles that invade the human body through diet, respiration, and skin contact have become an emerging factor exacerbating immune disorders and triggering health concerns. Faced with this silent "microplastic siege," Geyu New Materials' anaerobic biodegradation technology is committed to cutting off the pollution chain from the source, building a solid dual barrier for human health and the Earth's ecology.

01 Health Crisis: How Microplastics Become Uninvited Guests in the Human Body

Microplastics (plastic particles with a diameter of less than 5 millimeters) permeate human health without exception. To trace the root cause, we need to pay special attention to two main sources:

1. Intentionally Added "Primary" Microplastics

Plastic scrubbing particles (microbeads) once widely used in toothpaste, facial cleansers, and cosmetics, as well as plastic microspheres used as fillers in certain industrial masterbatches—these are "primary" microplastics produced directly, which flow into the environment with washing.

2. "Secondary" Microplastics

• Oxidative plastics and photo-oxidative degradable plastics break down into microplastics under the action of traditional oxidative or photo-oxidative degradation additives;
• Some bio-based materials with incomplete biodegradation effects (plastics filled with starch, rice husk powder, straw powder, bamboo powder, etc.) do not fully decompose in the natural environment but physically disintegrate into smaller, harder-to-recycle microplastic fragments, causing more extensive pollution;
• Some biodegradable plastics can only degrade in industrial composting facilities and are prone to cracking into microplastics in the natural environment, causing secondary pollution to the natural environment.

These microplastics enter the human body through drinking water, the food chain, and even respiration. Scientific research has detected their presence in human blood, breast milk, and lung tissue. They not only act as "Trojan horses," adsorbing heavy metals, pollen, and other harmful substances to invade synergistically but also directly damage the intestinal and respiratory barriers, disrupt immune balance, and exacerbate allergic reactions.

02 Technological Breakthrough: Geyu's Anaerobic Biodegradation Ends Pollution at the Source

Geyu New Materials' core technology directly addresses the pain points of traditional plastics—"difficult to degrade and residual toxicity"—and provides a practical solution:

Breaking Environmental Limitations, Degradation Everywhere

Unlike traditional degradable plastics that rely on specific light or industrial composting conditions, Geyu's technology can efficiently trigger microbial degradation processes in natural anaerobic environments such as landfills, soil, and underwater. Whether it is fresh food packaging, catering tableware, or agricultural mulch films, they can start the "disappearance" process in the natural environment after use.

Pure and Harmless Products, Achieving an Ecological Closed Loop

The final products of degradation are only carbon dioxide, methane, and a small amount of inorganic salts, with no microplastic residues generated throughout the process. This truly realizes "from nature, back to nature," eliminating the production of microplastics at the source.

Balancing Performance and Cost, Promoting Large-Scale Application

The technology fully retains the excellent performance (strength, flexibility) of traditional plastics and has obtained food contact safety certifications such as Europe's REACH, ROHS, and the US FDA. For enterprises, it can achieve a smooth replacement without modifying existing production lines, completing environmental upgrades at a friendly cost, and solving the industry dilemma of "sacrificing benefits for environmental protection."

03 Era Opportunity: Policy and Health Dual-Drive, Geyu Leads Green Transformation

Globally, the green wave is irresistible. The advancement of China's Eco-Environmental Code (Draft), the deepening of local "plastic bans," and the strict bans on "fake degradation" in the EU and other regions have jointly built a strong policy driving force. Geyu's anaerobic biodegradation technology not only perfectly aligns with the policy orientation of "easy to recycle, easy to degrade, and no residue" but also meets the stringent international market standards for authentic, verifiable biodegradation, providing enterprises with a "passport" to global green trade.

For Individuals

Choosing products made with Geyu's technology is a wise move to actively cut off the microplastic exposure chain and protect the health of family members.

For Enterprises

Applying Geyu's technology is a strategic layout to respond to national policies, enhance brand image, and seize the opportunity in the green consumer market.

Conclusion: Choose Geyu, Co-Create a Future of Plastic-Free Pure Land

Microplastic governance cannot be achieved by one party alone; it calls for the joint participation of all from the upstream of the industrial chain to end consumers. Geyu New Materials is based on hardcore technology and integrates environmental commitments into every product. Starting with a fully degradable plastic bag or an eco-friendly takeaway box, choosing Geyu is not only choosing a safer and healthier product but also choosing a responsibility and vision for the future.

Let us join hands, act from the source, and leave a cleaner and healthier Earth for the next generation.
