Certifications and compliance

Every SKU on this page is BPI (US), EN 13432 (EU), and ASTM D6400 certified for industrial composting. Material formulations use only plant-derived feedstocks — no PFAS, no oxo-degradables, no fossil-plastic intermediates. Our certificate trail back-references the same factory the products ship from, so procurement and compliance teams can verify chain-of-custody from compounding through finished goods.
