PLA stands for Poly Lactic Acid and it is the chemical name of a plastic made from corn. PLA is a biodegradable/compostable plastic. It is a highly transparent when unmodified, and stiff plastic. PLA plastics look and act like the traditional petroleum base plastics (PS, PP and PET) but it is very environmental friendly.
Where does PLA plastic come from and where does it go to?
