5 Common Pouch Certification Problems (And Solutions)
How we overcome the technical challenges associated with certified materials.
1. Navigating Complex Regional Standards
Pain Point: Different markets require different certifications (BPI in NA, EN 13432 in EU, AS 4736 in AU).
Solution: Unified material engineering that meets multiple standards globally, simplifying compliance.
2. Balancing Barrier Properties with Compostability
Pain Point: High barrier requirements often conflict with the need for materials to break down in compost facilities.
Solution: Multi-layer high-barrier bio-based films that pass disintegration tests while keeping moisture/oxygen out.
3. Ink and Adhesive Toxicity
Pain Point: Standard inks and adhesives can fail ecotoxicity tests, preventing certification.
Solution: Utilizing verified water-based inks and solvent-free compostable adhesives that leave no harmful residues.
4. Shelf-Life Limitations of Certified Materials
Pain Point: Compostable materials may degrade too quickly, limiting product shelf life.
Solution: Specialized laminate structures to extend shelf life without compromising end-of-life biodegradability.
5. High Cost and Long Timeline of Certification
Pain Point: The certification process can be prohibitively expensive and time-consuming for brands.
Solution: Using pre-certified material structures to bypass lengthy testing phases and reduce costs.
