All of our products at Mr Mango Makes are made from PLA (Polylactic Acid), a high-quality, plant-based plastic derived from renewable resources such as corn starch or sugarcane. PLA is non-toxic, biodegradable, and widely used in food and medical industries. We choose this material because it offers a safe, durable, and more environmentally friendly alternative to traditional plastics, while keeping your pets’ welfare as our top priority.

PLA (Polylactic Acid) is a biodegradable, plant-based plastic made from fermented sugars, typically derived from corn starch or sugarcane. It is widely used as an eco-friendly alternative to traditional plastics.

PLA can splinter if excessively chewed, particularly by small animals. However, this is no different from wood, which carries the same risk. We always recommend monitoring your pet and removing any item if excessive chewing occurs.

Yes. PLA plastic is considered non-toxic and safe for pets when used as intended. At Mr Mango Makes, animal welfare is our top priority, and we would never sell a product that we believe to be unsafe for your pet.

If large quantities of PLA are consumed, there is a potential risk of blockages. Again, this risk is comparable to that of wood. Occasional nibbling is generally not a concern, but products should always be used under supervision.

PLA has similar safety characteristics to wood. Both materials may splinter or cause blockages if chewed excessively, which is why responsible use and regular monitoring are important.

Yes. PLA is biodegradable and can break down naturally through microorganisms under the right conditions. It is also made from renewable resources, helping to reduce reliance on fossil fuels.

We choose PLA because it allows us to create products that are safe for pets, durable for everyday use, and more sustainable for the planet compared to traditional plastics.

If your pet begins chewing excessively, we recommend removing the product immediately, just as you would with any wooden or enclosure accessory. Occasional nibbling is perfectly normal and safe.

Yes. PLA is considered food-safe, which is why it is commonly used in food packaging and food-related products.
