Quick Summary:
Bagasse tableware is eco by nature, but coatings such as plastic can break certification in 2025. Only PLA coatings pass industrial compostability tests (EN 13432, ASTM D6400, AS 4736), while PE coatings fail here and damage compost quality. Likewise, inks must be water-based or vegetable for safety. Export-ready products need certified plating, traceable inks, and documentation to access markets in EU, NA, AU, and Asia—avoiding non-compliance, recalls, or greenwashing.
