Material Notes:

100% biodegradable and compostable thermoplastic. The compostable resin blend performs well compared to LDPE and is BPI certified compostable under ASTM D-6400. Xylomer™ is modified lignin, an abundant, natural byproduct of the paper manufacturing process, blended with other compostable polymers. Xylomer™ pellets have been demonstrated in injection molding and vacuum forming processes to create samples of cups and bowls.Information provided by Cyclewood Solutions.
