As an organisation we are extremely conscious of our carbon footprint. But as the saying goes, "if you can’t measure it, you can’t improve it", so in early 2020 we undertook a full audit of our carbon emissions and now offset them by 120%. That’s what being ‘climate positive’ means!

We know our products are out there doing good, but BCorp Certification is about much more than that, it’s an assessment of the overall positive impact of the company rather than a product or service. It asks; How do we operate behind the scenes? How do we treat our people? How genuinely do we care about our mission and how does that permeate through our operations? As well as making a positive contribution to the environment, are we also helping benefit society?
Being BCorp Certified means that our customers know we meet the highest standards of verified social and environmental performance, public transparency, and legal accountability to balance profit and purpose. The BCorp certification process is a way of quantifying the process of constant improvement that we are making to the way we ‘do business’ and, importantly, zeroing in on the areas where we can do Better!

Our comPOST Range meets a number of stringent tests for Compostability. The Australasian Standard, AS5810, is one of the toughest to achieve (they even check to make sure the products are non-toxic to worms!).
AS5810 certification numbers are ABAP 20036, ABAP 20049 and ABAM 20013. We are also active members of the Australasian Bioplastics Association, the organisation responsible for setting and upholding these standards.

The OK Home Compost Certification is another internationally recognised certification that many of our products carry. It is governed by TUV in Austria and most widely recognised throughout Europe.

The Seedling logo is internationally recognised as symbolising that a product will break down properly under commercial / industrial composting conditions. Only a few of our products have not been certified Home Compostable and carry this certification instead. Please check their product pages for more info as often we are confident that, if treated properly (e.g, our comPOSTubble Bags need their layers separated), then they will break down just fine in a home compost too.
