End of Life
Industrial Composting
Our sugarcane range is certified compostable to the AS 4736 and ASTM D6400 standards for industrial composting, which requires the product to:
1) disintegrate after 12 weeks, and
2) completely biodegrade after six months. (This means that 90% or more of the material will have been converted to CO2. The remaining share is converted into water and biomass – i.e. valuable compost.)
Home Composting
Our sugarcane range is certified home compostable to the Australian Standard (AS 5810). The OK compost HOME programme is the basis of the Australian Standard.
OK compost HOME refers to products that also compost at lower temperatures (below 30°C), so they can go into the compost heap in your garden at home, hence the title “HOME”. AS 5810 certification requires a product to:
1) 100% biodegrade into completely non-toxic by-products, and
2) disintegrate within 180 days. Not more than 10% of the original dry weight may be found in a > 2mm screen fraction
3) ultimate biodegradability (90% absolute biodegradation, or 90% with a suitable reference substrate within 12 months.)
