PLA claims the product is the first to be at least 50% made from renewable materials - including starch and polylactic acid - and says the bag has been certified as fully compostable, certified to European standard EN 13432. Organic waste bags with less than 40% renewable content are already available in France and Italy, said PLA Vietnam Product Manager Manh-Hung Ngo.
