What makes BioApply compostable bags different from conventional plastic or paper bags?
BioApply bags are made from renewable and bio-sourced raw materials, such as starch and plant-based polymers. Unlike traditional petroleum-based plastic bags, they are certified compostable according to the EN13432 standard and decompose without leaving microplastics or toxic residues. Unlike paper, which often requires deforestation and significant water consumption, our bags are part of a circular economy approach, with a significantly reduced environmental impact. In addition, we guarantee full traceability of our materials, allowing customers to make transparent and responsible choices.
Are these bags really compostable – and where can you compost them?
Yes, our bags are certified compostable and suitable for both industrial and home composting, depending on the model. In Switzerland, they are widely accepted in municipal organic waste collection systems, facilitating sorting at source. BioApply works in partnership with Biomasse Suisse to ensure its products integrate seamlessly with existing composting infrastructure. It's an ideal solution for retailers, restaurants, communities, and individuals concerned with reducing their environmental footprint.
Are BioApply bags certified for composting in Europe?

All BioApply bags are certified compostable according to European standard EN13432, which guarantees their complete decomposition in industrial composting facilities in Switzerland, France, Germany, and throughout the European Union. This certification is recognized by local authorities and biowaste treatment facilities. Thanks to this compliance, our bags can be used for the collection of organic waste, while complying with current environmental regulations. Furthermore, BioApply offers complete traceability of raw materials, allowing companies and public institutions to concretely demonstrate their environmental commitment.
