[quote=Anonymous]Hey! If you have access to a commercial composting facility through a compost drop-off program or a residential composting program, you can look for bags that are BPI (biodegradable products institute) certified/CMA (compost manufacturers alliance) certified. CMA certification is less common but depending, your local facility may have a specific product list through CMA that is specific to their processing context. Bioplastics behave like petrochemical derived/traditional plastics in nature. Unfortunately, bioplastics bags that are labeled biodegradable are not necessarily compostable, and all compostable bioplastics are only commercially compostable (if accepted by your facility). It’s confusing, so third-party certifications can be useful for navigating alternatives for composting purposes. [/quote]
