What this mark means

The Seedling mark identifies products certified through the programme’s industrial-compostability route. The Seedling is a registered certification mark, not a generic plant symbol or a home-compostability claim.

Before you add it to your label

  1. Confirm certification through an authorised certifier and retain the required registration information.
  2. Get the production file from the issuer or your certification contact; keep its proportions and required wording intact.
  3. Include the source and approval reference with your artwork for the final label review.
