Biodegradable
A product is considered biodegradable if it can be naturally decomposed by microorganisms, such as bacteria or fungi, over a period of time. It is usually made from plant or animal resources.
Composting
An item is compostable when it can be decomposed and disintegrated into water, carbon dioxide or nutrient-rich, reusable biomass at the same rate as paper without releasing toxins.
Degrading
These products are created from petroleum and cannot decompose naturally like biodegradable items. In fact, degradable products decompose through chemical reactions in anaerobic environments. As a result, their decomposition results in water, carbon dioxide, biomass or trace elements.
Recyclable
This means that the product can be reused and turned into something new after it is discarded.
Renewable
A product is renewable if it comes from a tree, plant or other living organism capable of regenerating itself. Therefore, the production of renewable materials will not deplete the renewable resources from which they come
