Biodegradable Cable Ties

This contractor has used biodegradable cable ties to further reduce the consumption of single use plastics onsite.

These cable ties have been used in areas such as exclusion zones and in their debris netting on the scaffold. This has been particularly useful as cable ties are often disposed of in general waste which is often then converted to landfill.

In contrast, the new biodegradable cable ties last a minimum of 2 years and due to their biodegradable composition, they decompose under prolonged exposure to UV, moisture, and micro-organisms.
