Certificate of Analysis
The Certificate of Analysis issued by CIPET Madurai for Bioplast Products Co certifies that the submitted sample of bio-plastic cutlery was tested according to ISO 17088:2021 standards and achieved 90.73% compostability within 129 days, surpassing the standard requirement of 90% compostability in 180 days. The sample also met criteria for seed germination and disintegration as specified by ISO 17088:2021, confirming its compliance as a compostable product.
Certificate of standards for compostability and environmental safety
The final CIPET test report for Bioplast Products Co confirms that the submitted bio-plastic cutlery products met all relevant ISO 17088:2021 standards for compostability and environmental safety, achieving 90.73% biodegradation in 129 days and passing seed germination and earthworm ecotoxicity tests with high survival rates exceeding 95%. The disintegration and heavy metal content analysis (arsenic, copper, nickel, zinc, chromium, mercury, cadmium, lead) showed results well within specified safe limits, ensuring both plant and soil safety. The report certifies these products as compostable and safe for use, provided subsequent production batches are consistently tested and validated.
Certificate of Observation for Biodegradability
The CIPET biodegradability observation report for Bioplast Products Co details that their PLA and PBAT-based cutlery samples underwent successful composting for 129 days, achieving a mean biodegradation of 90.73%, closely matching cellulose benchmarks and surpassing the ISO 17088:2021 requirement. Throughout the 18 weeks, the cutlery maintained appropriate moisture and color, showed no fungal growth, and transitioned from cream white to brown before complete disintegration, with less than 10% residual dry mass after 12 weeks. Further tests confirmed greater than 90% seed germination and minimal ecotoxicity, as earthworm survival and reproduction rates remained above 90% compared to control composts, validating the product’s environmental safety and compostability.
