1. What is Larry's new biodegradable coffee packaging? We've developed new packaging for Larry's Beans 12oz and 1lb coffee bags using state-of-the-art technology that allows plastic to biodegrade in landfill, and even your home compost heap. It's a pretty new technology, invented here in the US, and we believe we are one of the first companies to be using it.
2. What's it made from? It is made from regular plastic, produced from petroleum biproducts (obviously not ideal!), but includes an additive that helps micro-organisms to break it down completely into humus, leaving no harmful residues behind. We're no soil scientists, so we checked out that these claims have been tested to ASTM 5511 criteria the "standard test method for determining anaerobic biodegradation of plastic materials under anaerobic high-solids conditions." (ASTM is the American Society for Testing and Materials.) EPA tests have also shown that no dangerous chemicals or toxins are left in the soil once the bags are dirt.
