The compost can then be used as fertilizer or returned back to nature. The process of composting waste requires the right environment and the presence of oxygen, heat, and moisture.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"459\" data-end=\"770\">For products to be compostable, they must meet certain international standards. To comply, a product must completely decompose in a given environment within a specific timeframe, while leaving no residues or micro-particles in the soil. Composting can take place either at home or under industrial conditions.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"772\" data-end=\"827\"><strong data-start=\"772\" data-end=\"825\">Are all paper and cardboard packages compostable?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p data-start=\"829\" data-end=\"923\">Only products made entirely from cardboard and paper are compostable and 100% biodegradable.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"925\" data-end=\"1353\">Not all paper products on the market meet this requirement. For example, many paper straws are glued with polymer adhesives. While this makes them durable, it also makes them impossible to compost. The paper layers may decompose fully within a few months, but the glue will remain intact for several hundred years. Composting such a straw would essentially have the same effect as trying to compost a single-use plastic straw.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1355\" data-end=\"1590\">The same applies to most disposable cardboard coffee cups. Many of them are manufactured with a polyethylene (PE) lining on the inside, which provides water resistance. These coffee cups are not biodegradable and cannot be composted.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1592\" data-end=\"1633\"><strong data-start=\"1592\" data-end=\"1631\">Which products are NOT compostable?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1635\" data-end=\"2119\">In addition to cardboard coffee cups with PE lining, the blacklist of non-compostable single-use products includes wet wipes, food boxes with plastic elements, juice and milk cartons with an aluminum lining, and others. These products are even more harmful than fully plastic ones, as they can only be recycled in specific facilities and under very particular conditions. Ultimately, a huge portion of them end up in landfills, where they will remain for the next 500 to 1000 years.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"2121\" data-end=\"2202\"><strong data-start=\"2121\" data-end=\"2200\">All our paper and cardboard packaging products are 100% compostable at home<\/strong><\/p>\n<p data-start=\"2204\" data-end=\"2289\">All of our products are 100% biodegradable and compostable in home compost systems.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"2291\" data-end=\"2617\">We offer paper straws, disposable cardboard food boxes, paper napkins, cardboard plates, burger boxes, and cardboard coffee cups which, after use, can be disposed of in the paper bin or directly into home compost, where they will fully decompose in about 5\u20136 months.
