Certified compostability

• Biopolymer-coated paperboard breaks down to humus and CO2 in industrial composting.

• In recycling schemes, biodegradable products are primarily intended into the collection of compostable materials, but can be recycled together with PE coated packages.

• Board as such is biodegradable and all the biopolymers we use are compostable

• Bio materials meet the compostability requirements of the EN 13432 standard
