Plastic straws contribute significantly to environmental pollution, with Malaysians using around 31 million daily. These petroleum-based straws release toxic gases and persist for centuries, threatening marine life and ecosystems. Hawks Straw addresses this issue by offering a biodegradable, edible alternative made from corn starch and vegetable glycerine. It fully decomposes within a week and acts as natural fertilizer, reducing its ecological footprint. Designed for versatility, it is safe for patients, children with special needs, and can be consumed as a healthy snack. Tested materials confirmed corn starch as most effective. Hawks Straw promotes sustainable living through small but impactful choices.
