What Ecolastic Products does

Ecolastic Products Pvt. Ltd. is a Hyderabad-based bio-plastics manufacturer (founded 2020, 11–50 employees, two factories) that produces 100% compostable, corn-starch-based alternatives to single-use plastics. Its core technology is a proprietary PLA/bioplastic formulation developed in collaboration with DRDO (Defence Research and Development Organisation), Ministry of Defence, that converts corn and vegetable starch into granules and finished products such as garbage bags, D-cut and U-cut carry bags, compostable pouches, plant grow bags, and courier bags — all certified under IS/ISO 17088, CPCB, CIPET, TUV Austria, BPI, and additional international standards, and decomposing in 80–180 days.

The company monetizes through two complementary streams: (1) finished-product sales — direct-to-consumer via its own e-commerce site ecolastic.in (priced INR 125–560 per pack/kg across SKUs) plus bulk/custom B2B orders (minimum 100 kg, custom colors and printing) to enterprises, and (2) raw-material granule and compound sales to third-party bioplastic manufacturers. Customer segments span eco-conscious households, offices, restaurants and cloud kitchens, e-commerce shippers, agriculture (mulch films and grow bags), government and religious institutions (notably Tirumala Tirupati Devasthanams), and schools.

Ecolastic is a subsidiary of the Vishwa Samudra Group conglomerate and is the only company in India recommended by NITI Aayog and the only compostable manufacturer designated as Official Sustainability Partner of the G20 Summit (Nagaland, April 2023). It operates in India and the Maldives, with European exposure beginning in 2025 via Techtextil Frankfurt and the launch of ECOlastic Workwear.
