FAQ of Bioleader's Eco-friendly Disposable Tableware

Can biodegradable plastics be exported to Europe?

Only if they meet EN13432 and are registered with EPR systems (e.g., LUCID in Germany). Without this, products may be denied entry.

What is EN13432 certification, and why is it required in Europe?

EN13432 is the EU standard for industrial compostability. It certifies that packaging will fully break down in commercial composting within set timeframes. All compostable claims in the EU require EN13432 and local EPR registration.

Can I export cornstarch cutlery to the EU without EN13432 certification?

No. The EU strictly requires EN13432 or equivalent certification for any product marketed as “compostable.” Blends containing conventional plastics are not allowed.

Does bagasse packaging meet EN13432 or ASTM D6400?

Specific SKUs can be supplied with EN13432/ASTM D6400 documentation. Request current certificates for the exact model you buy.
