In order to comply with the internationally recognised standard, the labels must be proven to have decomposed after three months. Certification in accordance with DIN EN 13432 thus ensures that the product is biodegradable. The label material also bears the Keimling certification mark from European Bioplastics e. V., which can be awarded on the basis of the DIN EN 13432 standard.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201eIn recent years, we have been working intensively on sustainable labels based on a wide variety of materials. One of the biggest challenges is the appealing design of biodegradable labels in the context of compostability. We pass this expertise on to our customers in order to provide them with the best possible advice and support when it comes to green packaging.\u201c<br \/>\n<strong>Gunther Schiller<\/strong>Managing Director of Etiket Schiller<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Etiket Schiller has specialised in the processing of sustainable labels since 2016.
