Industry Standards

The American Chemistry Council found that most consumers expect biodegradable products to break down naturally within 1 year or less, leaving nothing behind. The FTC shares this view, stating materials should decompose "in a reasonably short period of time after customary disposal." ASTM (American Standards for Testing Materials) provides official definitions and testing standards for these properties.
