As microplastics get more scrutiny, demand for glitter that biodegrades in nature is growing. For Bioglitter, which uses plant-based cellulose to make its product, that's a big opportunity.
A bit of glitter is like a bottle of champagne on New Year s Eve: It s all fun and games until the next morning. Traditional glitter is a microplastic, which means most of it ends up in bodies of water after a single use. Earlier this year, the European Union banned the sale of loose-plastic glitter entirely, citing the impacts on the environment.
