This invention describes a sachet, like a small packet, designed to break down naturally in the environment or even in a home compost pile. It holds a solid, foamy product, such as a shampoo or conditioner bar. The sachet is made from specific layers, including a middle layer primarily of cellulose and an inner layer that could be polyvinyl alcohol or polyhydroxyalkanoate. The solid product inside is an open-cell foam made from a water-soluble polymer and a cleaning agent.
Why it matters: Since 2023, advancements in biodegradable polymer synthesis or multi-layer film manufacturing may have improved the cost-effectiveness or performance of the specific cellulose, PVA, or PHA materials required for a truly home-compostable sachet.
