In a recent industry report, Australian waste management experts revealed that misleading “biodegradable” or “compostable” labels are allowing massive amounts of non-compostable plastic to enter the food and garden waste recycling stream.
These contaminants reduce compost quality and damage public trust in sustainable packaging solutions.
The report calls for:
Stricter labeling standards for compostable packaging
Clear certification marks such as “OK Compost” or “EN13432”
Consumer education to help identify truly compostable bags
As a certified compostable bag manufacturer, we support transparent labeling and verified certifications, ensuring every bag we produce meets international compostability standards.
Choosing the right compostable bag is not just about convenience — it’s about protecting the environment from hidden plastic pollution.
