Compostable PHA film

Unlike PLA, PHA does not contain any fossil fuel derivative, making it entirely renewable and easily home compostable within a few months. Since it's derived from plants with no fossil fuels or additives, it breaks down completely, without leaving behind harmful chemicals or microplastics.Unfortunately, home composting is not yet common practice...

Frequently asked questions

Can my compostable packaging be recycled?

Compostable materials are designed to be composted. Unfortunately, that means that they generally cannot be recycled and shouldn't go into a recycling stream. Although commercial composting systems are not widely available presently they are growing rapidly, so too is the rate of home composting. For further reading please visit our Resource Hub.
