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.

OEM, private label, and bulk orders

Stock SKUs ship by the case from finished-goods inventory; printed and OEM runs go through art-file proofing, plate or digital setup, and quality control before release. Standard MOQ is around 5,000 units for printed orders, with cost efficiency improving steeply at 10,000+ units and full-pallet or container volumes. Lead time is typically 4–6 weeks after artwork approval, plus ocean freight for international shipments.
