Frequently Asked Questions
How is compostable different from biodegradable?
All compostable materials are biodegradable, but not all biodegradable materials are compostable. “Biodegradable” is a broad term that does not specify how long breakdown takes or what remains afterward, and some biodegradable plastics may fragment into microplastics or leave residues. Certified Compostable materials, like ours, are designed to fully break down under defined composting conditions into natural components, leaving no persistent microplastic residue or toxic by-products.
Is Botala Certified?
Yes, we are TUV Austria and COPCO certified!
How do I dispose of Botala's products?
Our certified compostable products are designed for disposal in home compost bins or industrial composting facilities, where available. Under proper composting conditions, they fully break down into natural components without leaving persistent microplastic residue or toxic by-products. If composting infrastructure is not available, these materials are still designed to break down more readily than conventional plastics, which can persist in the environment for centuries.
Why does using compostable plastics matter?
Using compostable plastics matters because they are designed to break down safely into soil—without leaving toxic residues or persistent microplastics—helping protect ecosystems, food systems, and human health.
