Sustainable Materials You Can Trust
The plastic used in our kids’ STEM products is made from polylactic acid (PLA), a plant-based material designed with the future in mind. PLA offers several important environmental benefits:
- Made from Renewable Resources
Derived from plant starches such as corn and sugarcane, reducing reliance on fossil fuels. - Lower Carbon Footprint
Requires less energy to produce and generates significantly fewer greenhouse gas emissions compared to conventional petroleum-based plastics. - Industrial Compostable
Breaks down in industrial composting facilities within weeks to months into non-toxic, natural elements—helping reduce landfill waste. - Minimal Microplastic Impact
Unlike traditional plastics, PLA generally breaks down into natural components rather than long-lasting microplastics.
By choosing PLA, we’re supporting cleaner production methods and more sustainable materials—so kids can learn, build, and explore while caring for the planet.
