A friend of mine bought 45% of a company which made boards out of recycled plastics. They had a superior product, one which was stronger than the most popular brand. Theirs sagged less, held its' shape better.

They started out in NW Washington state, and when transportation got too expensive they moved the plant to China. Hearing about the various problems and wonderful facilities was fascinating.

He went for a while without mentioning anything about it. I asked.

He said they had to stop making it. Biodegradable plastics had worked their way into their raw materials and they couldn't guarantee the finished product any more.
