This invention reduces the emission of carbon dioxide in the manufacturing process in comparison with that of the conventional petrochemical erasers and contributes to reduction in environmental impact.<br \/>\nAccording to statics, the eraser currently used by primary schools exceeds 15 tons per year and more that 95% of the commercially available erasers are made with PVC and contains heavy metals and diester phthalate (DEHP) plasticizers.<br \/>\nPlasticizers must be added during the manufacturing process to make the eraser soft. Phthalates are environmental hormones that interfere with hormonal operations in the body and affects reproduction &amp; development. In addition to this they can also cause liver cancer &amp; kidney cancer. When children come in touch with these toxic items containing phthalates, they may directly or indirectly consume these toxic plasticizers and be at high health risks. There are vinyl chloride erasers and non-vinyl chloride erasers on the market. However, these erasers must use a large amount of depleting petrochemical resources and are accompanied by a large amount of carbon emission during the manufacturing process which are against current goals of countries to slow down global warming and reduce environmental burdens.<br \/>\nThe innovative use of rice husk and tea leaves avoids the trouble of environmental pollution caused by disposal and can save a lot of consumption of other natural resources. Taiwan currently produces about 60000 metric tons of rice husk waste every year. FLOMO uses the rice husk &amp; tea leaves which mostly are going to be disposed of by burning it in the open or dumped it in open spaces in rivers causing environmental pollution. The reuse of these materials in FLOMO\u2019s REUSE eraser is a key innovation that addresses this environmental challenge.\n<\/p>\n<p><\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section><style>.ffb-id-730dmp0c{ \nheight: 30px;\n}\n.ffb-id-6nlkibib{ padding-top: 30px;}@media (min-width:992px) { .ffb-id-6nlkibib{ padding-top: 30px;}}<\/style><script type=\"text\/javascript\"><\/script><section class=\"ffb-id-6nlkjth3 fg-section fg-text-dark\"><div class=\"fg-container container fg-container-large fg-container-lvl--1 \"><div class=\"fg-row row    \" ><div class=\"ffb-id-6nlkjth4 fg-col col-xs-12 col-md-12 fg-text-dark\"><h2 class=\"ffb-id-6nln07ah fg-heading text-left    fg-text-dark\" style=\"font-weight:bold; \"><\/p>\n<p><strong><span lang=\"EN-US\" style=\"font-size: 22.5pt;font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif';color: #34343c\">Patent Product &amp; USDA Certified<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><\/h2><p class=\"ffb-id-6nlkkdk6 fg-paragraph text-left    fg-text-dark\"><\/p>\n<p>FLOMO\u2019s USDA certified &amp; patented Biobased Reuse Erasers \u2014 Rice Husk and Tea Leaf \u2014 contain 36% and 37% biomass content, respectively.
