Sustainability & Impact

Different countries have different waste infrastructures. Composting conditions vary and not all certifications are built around the same assumptions. That’s why understanding compostable certifications is less about recognising a logo and more about understanding what sits behind it.

The EU continues to strengthen its approach to waste and circular economy. On paper, this makes sense. But in practice, it raises a more difficult question: what does it actually take to make waste systems work?

We’re proud to share that Biobag Group has been independently verified through the B Corp Impact Assessment, achieving a score of 86.3.

Since its invention, humankind has produced app. 9 billion tons of conventional plastic. Sadly most of it is still here on Earth.

Surprisingly, organic waste like left-over food, vegetable skins, fruit peels, etc. is one of the top-5 threats to global warming.

Organic waste and left-over foods make up more than 44% of global waste each year, adding up to almost 1 billion tons.

London-based startup Aeropowder created Pluumo, a high-performance insulation material that turns surplus feather waste into a sustainable alternative to polystyrene.

Plastic is everywhere and has changed our daily lives. It is durable and convenient, but large amounts end up in nature, harming the environment, animals, and human health.

Microplastics are increasingly found in nature, and while their full impact is still unclear, they are seen as one of the biggest environmental challenges for humans and the planet.

Experts come with an interesting message about certified compostable waste bags that contradicts previous information!
