The Eco-value icon “Biodegradable” enables you to identify a product that is made from raw materials that can be biodegradable under certain conditions.
A biodegradable material is less harmful to the environment because it can, under the action of micro-organisms (bacteria, fungi and / or algae) from moisture, oxygen and heat, decompose, degrade and become bio-available.
The result of this degradation is non-toxic to the environment forming water, CO2 (carbon dioxide).
