ECOLOGICAL CREDENTIALS
DECO BIOGLITTER® SPARKLE
- Biodegradability: Proven to biodegrade highly in natural, fresh water environments;
- Independently ISO 14851 fresh water biodegradation tested by OWS Belgium; 87% biodegradation achieved in a month.
- Only 3% off meeting the performance criteria required for certification. As we remove the last bits of plastic, biodegradability performance will increase allowing us to achieve our certification goal.
- UPDATE – In January 2021 our new ‘Bioglitter™ SPARKLE GC’ product ranges will become available. ‘Bioglitter™ SPARKLE GC’ products are TÜV ‘OK biodegradable WATER’ certified. The coating in the new ‘Bioglitter™ SPARKLE GC’ products removes the acrylate plastic applied to the film, enabling the product to achieve the coveted fresh water biodegradable certification from TÜV.
- Environmental Safety (Ecotoxicity): Ecotoxicity and heavy metals test results for Bioglitter® SPARKLE meet the Environmental safety and Chemical characteristics requirements for TÜV, OK biodegradable WATER certification.
- Ethically and Sustainably Sourced Raw Materials: Special cellulose core derived from hardwoods, primarily eucalyptus, sustainably sourced from responsibly managed and certified plantations operating to PEFC™ www.pefc.org standards.
