Bolthouse Farms has introduced fully compostable packaging for its baby carrots, according to the company on the International Fresh Produce Association’s Global Produce & Floral Show website.
The Bolthouse Farms packaging material has earned certification as “home compostable,” assuring consumers of its eco-friendliness, according to the company, which will exhibit the packaging during the upcoming IFPA show at booth No. 1371.
The compostable packaging undergoes a transformation, degrading at a minimum rate of 90% within 26 weeks and achieving full 100% biodegradability within 52 weeks when placed in common backyard composting environments, like compost heaps or bins, according to the company.
This packaging is crafted entirely from 100% renewable resources, specifically derived from canola and soy, the company said.
