Is your product biodegradable
Asked by jf December 10, 2020Yes it is, there are some earthly chemicals in it like drying agents. Simply it is a concrete mixture that when you clean out a bucket and spray with a hose, basically it is just a mixture of sand and small grain rocks. This has been in use since ancient greece.
