    Hi Axel,

    Just to let you know, composting facilities in the state of Oregon in the US do not want bioplastics either. Among the reasons: bioplastic materials are very uneven in quality and degradation at their processing conditions; the resulting compost is not of good quality; material does not degrade well and composters should change their procedures; among other reasons.

      Dear Martha, thank you for your comment. To my knowledge, this has been known for a while; read the following article Oregon Composters. Has there been any recent news on this particular topic in Oregon?
