Senate Bill 1531 would create a law banning disposable food containers composed in whole or in part of polystyrene foam.
However, it would not prohibit the manufacture of disposable Styrofoam food containers for distribution or sale outside of Illinois.
The law would also exclude egg cartons.
Styrofoam degrades slowly and is non-recyclable, and is said to leach from landfills and can contaminate drinking water.
If passed, the law would go into effect January 1st, 2030.
