Certificate description
OK Compost INDUSTRIAL Certified Compostable Bags — Torise
What Our OK Compost INDUSTRIAL Certification Means for Your Supply Chain
When European retailers, brands, or industrial compost facility operators review compostable packaging, they look for independent verification against the OK Compost INDUSTRIAL standard—the European mark for industrial composting with explicit reference to EN 13432. Torise holds OK Compost INDUSTRIAL certification for our compostable bags, issued by TÜV Austria, covering shopping bags, produce bags, and waste collection bags.
This certification confirms that our bags meet the strict requirements for biodegradation, disintegration, ecotoxicity, and heavy metal limits under industrial composting conditions—with the added confidence of EN 13432 as the explicit testing basis. It provides our European buyers with credible, third-party validation that their packaging can carry the OK Compost INDUSTRIAL mark and meet EU regulatory, retail, and industrial facility requirements.
