A straw the sea can digest.
BIOMARINE straws perform like plastic in your glass — and disappear like food in the ocean. Weeks, not centuries.

Every straw ends up somewhere.
A single-use straw is used for about twenty minutes. A plastic one then persists for centuries — and the ones that reach the sea never biodegrade. They fragment into microplastics.
Estimated decomposition time of a conventional plastic straw.
Plastic estimated to enter the ocean every single year.
Straws consistently rank among the most collected items in beach cleanups.

Strong in the glass. Soft on the sea.
Our biopolymer is engineered for two environments: it holds its shape through hours of service, and it is recognized as food by marine microorganisms the moment it reaches the water.
- Service time4+ hours in cold or hot drinks — no soggy collapse.
- FeelRigid and smooth. Your guests won't notice the difference. The ocean will.
- In seawaterBreaks down in weeks into biomass, CO₂ and water.
- TestingThird-party tested for marine biodegradability.

What happens if it ends up here?
DAY 00Day 0. In your drink it's just a straw — rigid, smooth, reliable. In seawater, the clock starts.
Day 30. Marine microorganisms colonize the surface and begin breaking the polymer down, the same way they process organic matter.
Day 90. Nothing left but what the ocean already knows: biomass, CO₂ and water. A plastic straw at this point is 0.05% of the way through its 500 years.
