Capabilities & Standards for Biodegradability Testing

Although all compostable products are biodegradable, not all biodegradable products are compostable. Therefore, clear communication of the definition is essential, emphasizing the need for conformity standards. Standardized and rigorous testing is the only reliable method to confirm the biodegradability or compostability conformity of packaging, products and materials.

Below is a list of our capabilities and the standards we can test to at Impact Solutions. We understand that the challenge lies in knowing which testing your product requires. Our experts are here to kickstart your journey with a consultation and then tailor a bespoke roadmap to help you meet your biodegradable goals.
