Biodegradability
Due to a shortage of landfills, increasing public concern on climate change and growing interest in bio products, manufacturers opting for biodegradable solutions can contribute actively to environmental protection. With littering being still common, biodegradable solutions help to a great extent to lower its impact on our environment.
A material is said to be biodegradable when it breaks down and decomposes into elements found in nature within a reasonably short amount of time when exposed to air, moisture and bacteria or other organisms. Mondi products declared biodegradable meet all requirements for packaging recoverable through composting and biodegradation according to EN 13432.
