CERTIFICATION
The concept of “green & permanent” makes consumers likely to choose environmental friendly products. Therefore, more and more manufacturers hope to use degradable plastic or biomass materials to return products to the earth naturally, reduce environmental burden, and be closer to the eager for sustainable development of modern people. In recent years, more and more countries and regions have launched plastic restriction laws. Traditional and cracked (OXO) plastics have been banned. Only re-used, degradable or compostable plastics are allowed.
How to prove the plastic can be degraded? The simulation test as per international test standard should be carried out for determination the degree of decomposition of the material and the toxic effects to the soil in the certified laboratory. Through the complete test analysis report, customers can obtain international certification marks, which can greatly benefit brand in global marketing and promotion, and also assure consumer’s safety and environment protection.
