Common decomposition measurement certificates

As you know, there are a lot of products on the market now labeled with “bio compostable bags”, but it is still unclear between the concept of decomposition and decay into microplastics.
Below are the most specific concepts about the “bio compostable” standards that the world follows, and you can be assured of the quality when seeing these standards:
•    Biogradable Product institute (BPI): The product will safely decompose under the separate industrial composting conditions.
•    European Bioplastic: The product will safely decompose under the separate industrial composting conditions.
•    Vincotte OK bio based: The product is made from plants, without assuring of decomposition.
•    Vincotte OK compost: The product will safely decompose under the separate industrial composting conditions.
•    Vincotte OK compost HOME: The product will decompose under home composting.
•    Vincotte OK biodegradable SOIL: The product will decompose when buried in the ground.
•    Vincotte OK biodegradable WATER: The product will decompose in water (without assuring of decomposition under seawater).
For the final product, as in this case, a bio compostable bag, the input materials must satisfy the standards above, of which the two most widely used types of bio compostable plastics are PLA and PBAT. An Phat’s “bio compostable bags” are made from Ecovio materials of BASF and Mater-Bi – the world’s largest chemical groups from Germany, Novamont respectively.
Ecovio is a compound of both PLA-PBAT, ensuring smooth and softness. Mater-Bi, meanwhile, is primarily a PBAT resin extracted from non-GMO corn starch and vegetable oil, grown in Europe wiht conventional agricultural methods. Most importantly, both of those ingredients are certified with Vincotte OK compost HOME.
With the information above, you are assured of the quality of An Phat’s bio compostable bags, by using these bags, you have make a great contribution to the environmental protection!
