AN ECOENTREPRENEUR with THE GREENE EDGE
What is the world's first compostable bottle?
BIOTA uses nature-based packaging from NatureWorks(tm) PLA. NatureWorks PLA is the first commercially viable packaging material derived entirely from an annually renewable resource - corn.
BIOTA is the first beverage company in the world to exclusively use NatureWorks PLA to bottle its products. BIOTA water bottles are completely compostable. They are approved and certified as commercially compostable by the Biodegradable Products Institute (BPI). Initial testing has demonstrated that a BIOTA water bottle will degrade within 75 to 80 days in a commercial composting situation. A traditional plastic bottle is not compostable.
