biodegradable certifications
Biodegradable certifications indicate that a product can break down naturally into environmentally benign substances, like water, carbon dioxide, and biomass, within a certain period. These certifications verify that the material will decompose without leaving harmful residues, reducing environmental impact. They are awarded by independent organizations based on standardized testing and criteria. Keep in mind that "biodegradable" does not specify how quickly or in what environment decomposition occurs, so it's important to choose certifications that suit your specific usage and disposal context.
