Environmental Attributes
Commercially Compostable Where Municipalities Accept
Products that are commercially compostable break down into organic matter in industrial composting facilities without leaving toxic residues. Commercial Composting facilities maintain higher temperatures and controlled conditions to ensure these products decompose efficiently and completely. This process not only helps reduce landfill waste but also generates nutrient-rich compost that can be used to enhance soil health. Learn More
BPI Certified Compostable
Products with BPI Compostable Certification meet Biodegradable Products Institute standards for compostability. This ensures complete breakdown in composting facilities, yielding nutrient-rich compost without toxic residues. Rigorous testing confirms disintegration timeframes and compost quality. Learn more
BPA-Free
BPA-Free products are made without Bisphenol A (BPA), a chemical linked to health issues. Manufacturers can instead produce products using rapidly renewable agricultural plants such as sugarcane, corn, bamboo, bagasse, or miscanthus. These products offer similar functionality without the associated health risks, providing a safer choice for conscious consumers. Learn More
Plastic-Free
Polylactic acid (PLA) is a sustainable bioplastic alternative to traditional plastics made from petroleum. PLA is made from renewable resources such as cornstarch or sugarcane, and is biodegradable and commercially compostable, reducing the long-term impact on landfills and oceans. Learn more
No Additive PFAS (Forever Chemicals)
A product that contains No Additive PFAS (per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances, also known as forever chemicals because they take nearly “forever” to break down) means that throughout the product’s lifecycle—from production to disposal—there is no additional or intentional inclusion of PFAS, reducing the risk of contamination and long-term ecological damage.
USDA Certified Biobased Product
USDA Certified Biobased Products are approved by the USDA for containing renewable biological ingredients, derived from plants and renewable materials. They offer a sustainable alternative to petroleum-based products, supporting greenhouse gas reduction and sustainable practices. The certification process ensures biobased content standards are met through rigorous testing and third-party verification. Learn more
