Why are plastic bags less than 0.025mm thick
From June 1, 2008, the plastic shopping bags with a thickness of less than 0.025mm are prohibited from being produced, sold and used nationwide. According to the staff of shenyang product quality supervision and inspection institute, the state practices "plastic restrictions" in order to limit and reduce the use of plastic bags and to curb "white pollution". It is reported that "0.025mm" is the standard that the relevant departments of the country have decided to use after many tests and investigations. In the investigation, the authorities found that the so-called "white pollution" was caused by thin plastic bags less than 0.025mm thick. The nature of thick plastic bags is also a polluted environment, but people will use them many times. While plastic shopping bags are convenient for consumers, they also cause serious energy, waste and environmental pollution due to overuse and inadequate recovery. In particular, ultrathin plastic shopping bags are easy to break, and are mostly discarded as a major source of "white pollution".
