Renewable Material

Renewable Material is a resource that comes from sources that can grow back or regenerate quickly, like bamboo, cork, or certain types of fast-growing grasses, and in eco design, these materials help lower the use of limited resources. Designers can use renewable materials in products and buildings to help keep the environment healthy, since these materials can be replaced naturally in a short time. Using renewable materials in eco design can help reduce waste, because many of these materials are biodegradable or can be recycled easily. Some renewable materials even help clean the air while they grow, making them helpful for the planet before and after they are used in design projects.
