The Corporation, established in 1970 has responsibility for every aspect of sea and inland fishing, the harbours, markets, sales outlets, fish processing and ice-making facilities throughout the entire State of Karnataka.
Under the guidance and instruction of Mr. V.K. Shetty, Managing Director of KFDC, the Corporation are now using d2w products as a mandatory requirement and will look to convert their entire plastic consumption to oxo-biodegradable plastic using the d2w range of additives. An Order will be issued in due course to all users of plastic material in the fishing industry to use only such products.
This is an extremely significant development, as the KFDC are the first Government Corporation or Department in India to adopt and specifically use and promote oxo-biodegradable plastics using d2w additives. It is strongly believed that in taking this most important direction, the KFDC will begin to reverse the damage caused by all forms of plastic waste in the fishing industry, which employs many thousands of people in Karnataka. It is intended to hold courses and open days to promote public awareness for the use of and benefits in using oxo-biodegradable plastic.
Everest Plastic Industries of Mangalore who are manufacturing d2w products for KFDC have just been appointed members of the Oxo-Biodegradable Association in London and are also accredited users of d2w additives.
