The EN13432 standard is the official European benchmark for industrial compostability, defining conditions for biodegradation, disintegration, eco-toxicity, and heavy metal limits. TÜV Austria’s system complements EN13432 but extends further—offering a version that applies to home composting environments. In North America, the equivalent is BPI (Biodegradable Products Institute) certification, recognized by the U.S. and Canadian composting networks.

TÜV Austria home compostable certification, also known as “OK Compost Home,” verifies that a product can fully biodegrade in natural household compost conditions within 180 days. It confirms compliance with EN13432 and ensures the product is safe for soil and plants , home compost certification.
