Hot glue sticks are generally made from thermoplastic materials, such as ethylene-vinyl acetate (EVA), which are not biodegradable and can take a long time to break down in the environment. While some manufacturers are exploring eco-friendly alternatives, traditional hot glue sticks are not considered sustainable. Additionally, the production process involves the use of fossil fuels, contributing to their environmental impact. For more sustainable options, consider using biodegradable adhesives or natural glues.
