Compostable Packaging: Made to Measure for Your Brand
Compostable packaging is designed to break down into natural elements in a composting system, leaving no harmful residue. For packaging, that normally means meeting a recognised standard such as EN 13432, which is why a claim needs certificates, not just a leaf logo.
Compostable does not mean it will break down in a landfill or in any home compost heap. Industrial composting and home composting are different systems with different certification. Green claims need evidence. In the UK, the CMA Green Claims Code expects environmental claims to be accurate, clear and backed up, so describe your packaging precisely. We make packaging only and cannot give legal advice.
What to Check Before You Claim Compostable
- Whether the whole pack, including ink, coating and adhesive, is certified
- Whether the certification is for industrial composting or for home composting
- Whether your customers have access to a suitable collection route
- Which standard applies in your market, such as EN 13432 in Europe and the UK
- How to word the claim and instructions on the pack
Choose Your Style, Material and Size
Ask for certification evidence for the exact board, ink and coating combination you plan to use, and confirm it at the quote stage. Paper-based packaging with water-based inks and no plastic laminate is the simplest route. Certification claims should match what the supplier can document.
Design Tips for Compostable Packaging
Add clear disposal instructions, such as where it can be composted. Avoid vague words like eco or natural alone, and keep claims specific to what can be proven.
Printing and Finishing for Compostable Packaging
Print in full colour or a simpler palette and add a finish to suit your brand. Confirm your combination at the quote stage.
- Water-based inks for a lower-impact print
- Matt paper-based varnish instead of plastic lamination
- Embossing or debossing for texture without added materials
- Single-colour print on kraft for a natural look
- Hot-stamp foil, where recyclability is not a priority
Order Compostable Packaging With No Minimum
There is no minimum order quantity, so you can order compostable packaging for a single product or a full range. Production takes 8 to 12 business days, a free 3D mockup lets you approve the design before printing, and shipping is free worldwide.

Artwork Guide
What is Lorem Ipsum?
Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry’s standard dummy text ever since 1966, when designers at Letraset and James Mosley, the librarian at St Bride Printing Library in London, took a 1914 Cicero translation and scrambled it to make dummy text for Letraset’s Body Type sheets. It has survived not only many decades, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised thanks to these sheets and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker and Microsoft Word including versions of Lorem Ipsum.
Why do we use it?
It is a long established fact that a reader will be distracted by the readable content of a page when looking at its layout. The point of using Lorem Ipsum is that it has a more-or-less normal distribution of letters, as opposed to using ‘Content here, content here’, making it look like readable English. Many desktop publishing packages and web page editors now use Lorem Ipsum as their default model text, and a search for ‘lorem ipsum’ will uncover many web sites still in their infancy. Various versions have evolved over the years, sometimes by accident, sometimes on purpose (injected humour and the like).
