On June 25, Colorado's "The Compostable Product Labeling Act" is scheduled to take effect on July 1, 2024. The bill requires that certain products labeled as compostable must be certified and clearly labeled. American Eco Products has launched a new series of compostable products, namely "Veridian", which meets these requirements.
The "Veridian" series has more than 50 products, covering flip boxes, cups, lids, cutlery, bowls and containers. These products display the word "compostable" and the BPI certification mark, indicating that they are compostable and meet the standards set by the Biodegradable Products Institute (BPI). In addition, they also have green or brown identification marks to distinguish them from non-compostable packaging.
The new law aims to address contamination in the waste stream by ensuring that only certified compostable products are so labeled. This will help prevent non-compostable items from being thrown into compost bins, thereby reducing the growth of composting infrastructure and the resulting environmental impact.
American Eco Products' "Veridian" line has been tested and certified by BPI, the leading authority on compostable products in North America. With this new line, companies can confidently meet Colorado's labeling requirements while also contributing to a more sustainable future.
