The use of compostable packaging for food makes it possible to dispose of food waste together with its packaging. This helps to simplify the collection process not only at home but also especially at stadiums, airports or canteens.
Similarly, a compostable approach to packaging meal and takeaway products contaminated with food scraps after use results in better recovery of scraps and packaging. In addition, consumers are informed about how to separate their waste in a clear and simplified way.
In order to convey the sustainability message to consumers in a practical and clear way, the packaging itself becomes a messenger through eco-labels and certificates. A recent study shows that one in three Europeans read this information before buying. 23 percent of consumers make their choices by evaluating the characteristics of the material used in the packaging. In short, these labels help the consumer to manage the post-consumer waste correctly and play a fundamental role in strengthening consumer confidence.
Compostability certificates prove that the product is suitable for industrial composting according to EN 13432 standard criteria. After performing the necessary tests, accredited organizations issue compostability certificates to the manufacturers that will affix the relevant label on the packages. In this way, consumers are presented with an environmentally friendly label that will guide their consumption preferences.
Despite everything, biodegradable and compostable bioplastics and composting methods are not a definitive solution to the plastic pollution problem. To be successful on this path, reduction, reuse and recycling of packaging materials must be accelerated. A material can be recycled as long as it cannot be prevented from reaching the end of its life. However, this is not always possible. Compostability therefore represents a pathway of functional recovery.
