These compostable food containers are made from NatureWorks polylactic
acid (PLA), which is derived from corn grown in the USA. These
PLA containers are fully biodegradable and compostable and meet the most
stringent scientific requirements for biodegradability and compostability, and are ASTM D6400-99 certified for "compostable plastics". Though, they
are indistinguishable from normal plastic and as light and strong,
they fully degrade into water, carbon dioxide and organic material
when composted. There is no reason not to use these food
containers made from readily renewable resources as compared
to the petroleum based plastic containers, which create toxicity and
environmental pollution.
Please note, composting is required for
biodegradation and these compostable food containers will biodegrade within 180 days in a
commercial composting facility, and can take up to a year or more to
biodegrade in a home composting system. These compostable containers are only
meant to be used for food at temperatures less than 110 degrees F.

These biodegradable deli containers have our
"Bicompostable logo"
and
"This container is made from corn and is
100% compostable" printed on them in green color on
one side of the container. Some of the older stock has both
sides printed without the logo. We do this to distinguish them
from regular plastic containers and as well as to facilitate sorting
them in municipal recycling/composting facilities for
composting.
