Just got asked for Chloroplast.

[BIG EASY DOES IT]

Had a customer ask in an email if we had Chloroplast. Obviously meant coroplast but got me thinking. Does anyone out there make a plant based temporary board? Does anybody use any sort of plant based materials that our similar in price to their plastic counterpart?

Corrugated paperboard (cardboard) seems to come to mind...

As for all that eye-sore election signage...it should all have to be 100% biodegradable...with a 90-day lifespan.

falconboard is a paper/tree/plant based. price near plastic? - not even close. plastic is the cheapest.

around here there are city ordinances that politicians MUST pick up all their signage within 90 days or face stiff fines.

Never tried it, but Grimco offers a panelboard called Eaglecell. Honeycombed paper board.

It's probably the same or similar to some of what has already been mentioned, but we use a material called Nature Board. It's pretty popular for horticulture conventions/businesses that prefer the eco-friendly choice despite its higher cost.

Tell them you can give them Chloroform.
