Beginning on March 1st this year, South Australia State, located in southern Australia, announced that it will no longer provide disposable straws and tableware. Some people predict that the Australian government will gradually complete the "Recycling and Recycling and Reducing Waste in 2020" approved by the Australian House of Representatives. The Act", if the Act is fully effective, Australia will prohibit the export of 40,000 containers of garbage overseas each year.

  

From March 1st, 2021

  

It is reported that South Australia State bans the sale, supply or distribution of single-use plastic straws, tableware and blenders throughout the state in accordance with the "Single Use and Other Plastic Products (Waste Avoidance) Act" previously announced in 2020.

  

These disposable plastic products can be replaced with reusable and compostable plastic products, which are environmentally friendly, pollution-free and easy to recycle.

  

From March 1st, 2022

  

In addition, the Australian government plans to ban cups, bowls, plates and clamshell containers made of polystyrene (PS) foam in 2022. These are also prohibited from being sold, supplied or distributed in South Australia.

  

Among them, it is worth noting that in the 2022 ban, oxidatively degradable plastic products will also be prohibited from being sold, supplied or distributed in the state, and even manufactured and produced.
