What Is Biodegradable?
BioSmart offers you the highest quality biodegradable and compostable food service supplies in
North America. We take pride in helping hundreds of organizations every week learn to be
environmentally friendly, responsible consumers.
In the coming months, the number of “biodegradable” labeled products available in the
marketplace may increase by 10 times. As Worldwise suggests, "Of all the environmental
buzzwords, biodegradable has perhaps been the most misused and is perhaps the most difficult
to understand. Unfortunately, the word biodegradable has frequently been applied to products that
generally aren't (such as detergents or plastics) and almost never used for products that really are
(such as soap or paper)."
However, Being Solely Biodegradable Does Not = 100% Environmentally Friendly
The best "biodegradable" products are made of 100% organic materials (containing carbon
based molecules).
In Addition
We believe the best "biodegradable" products are made of materials that are biodegradable,
compostable, sustainable, and annually renewable. To learn more about these terms, click each

BioSmart sells products that are certified as biodegradable and compostable in a municipal andcommercial composting facility. There are several standards organizations that seek to define and
set consumer guidelines for biodegradable products such as:
Federal Trade Commission - Sorting Out "Green" Advertising Claims
American Society for Testing and Measurements (ASTM)
The Biodegradable Products Institute
