About Our Company

   Bio-Tec Environmental was established in 2003 by John Lake. John is the founder, CEO, and innovator behind the EcoPure® technology. EcoPure® is an organic additive that enhances the biodegradation* of traditional plastic products when placed in a biologically active landfill environment. Bio-Tec Environmental and all of our employees are devoted to an environmentally-conscious solution to the ongoing problem of global plastic contamination.

   Bio-Tec has found one step toward that solution, in the introduction of EcoPure® additives, which enhance the biodegradability* of traditional plastic products.

* Biodegradation rates of EcoPure®-treated plastic materials measured according to the ASTM D5511 test method.  Tests are generally conducted using 20% to 30% solids content; solids content in naturally wetter landfills range from 55% to 65%, while the driest landfills may reach 93%.  Actual biodegradation rates will vary in biologically-active landfills according to the type of plastic used, the product configuration, and the solid content, temperature and moisture levels of the landfill.
