What this mark means
BPI certification marks identify products certified for the composting scope shown on their approved label. Commercial and home composting are different scopes. Do not replace a commercial-only mark with a home-compostable claim.
Before you add it to your label
- Check the product listing and obtain the current mark with the correct company identifier.
- Get the production file from the issuer or your certification contact; keep its proportions and required wording intact.
- Include the source and approval reference with your artwork for the final label review.
