Montreal based Lysac Group Inc developed a new material that’s biodegradable and absorbent.
The new material will be used in diapers as of 2008. Traditional disposable diapers are made with oil-based polyacrylates. This new super absorbent material is made with wheat starch and is edible in small quantities. lol
They replaced the oil with something natural, similar to what we did with our natural memory foam. aaaa Very nice, high five.
A green diaper….it’s about time

Hi,
Can you send me info about this new diaper that will be coming out in 08? Do you know if I’ll buy able to purchase in USA? Thank you!
I have no clue. Lysac Group Inc, from what i can tell, does not have a website. If you’re really interested the best bet it to look for in once in a while.
Once i know i’ll post their info here.
There are however another alternatives such as the flushable diaper.
Could you tell me when I’ll be able to purchase the biodegradable,disposable diapers in the Montreal area. Thank you
I saw some at Jean Coutu the other day.
