• Renewable & Sustainable Resources  Raw materials, such as corn and sugarcane,
that can be transplanted, harvested & replanted in a years time, versus trees,
which require years to grow.

• Biodegradable  Solid material that will degrade (breakdown), as a result of
natural bacteria activity and will disappear into the environment over a period of
time.

• Compostable  Solid biodegradable materials that decay into a nutrient-rich,
natural material under controlled conditions. This is done in a commercial
composting facility, utilizing controlled micro-organisms, humidity and temperature
