CJ Biomaterials earns compostability certification for packaging materials

Its materials, which combine PHA and PLA, are now certified as compostable for use in applications such as drinking straws, cutlery, cups, and various rigid and flexible packaging solutions.

BPI certification verifies that the materials meet ASTM compostability standards, ensuring they break down safely in commercial composting environments.

This milestone supports the development of sustainable packaging solutions and helps divert food waste from landfills to compost facilities, reducing methane emissions and enriching soil health.
