ISO 17088:2021 is an international standard that specifies the requirements for plastics intended for composting. For compostable packaging, this certification ensures that the material biodegrades safely in a controlled composting environment, breaks down fully without leaving harmful residue or microplastics, and meets globally recognized benchmarks for environmental safety. It verifies that the product is genuinely compostable—not just biodegradable—and is safe for soil, plants, and the ecosystem.
