Every claim is certified.

At Natural Pet Partners®, every claim is third-party verified, not self-declared. Here is what each label on our products means, and what it means for your property, park or procurement team.

USDA Certified Biobased Product (BioPreferred®)

The USDA BioPreferred® program tests and certifies how much of a product comes from renewable plant-based material instead of petroleum. The percentage on each label is the verified biobased content of that product.

For commercial buyers: USDA certified biobased products can count toward federal, state and municipal sustainable purchasing requirements. Each product page names the label and percentage that applies.
BPI Compostable

BPI Compostable (ASTM D6400)

BPI certifies that a product meets ASTM D6400, the U.S. standard for plastics designed to compost in municipal and industrial composting facilities.

Composting programs: Use BPI certified bags where waste goes to a commercial composting facility that accepts compostable products. Check with your local hauler before switching.
TÜV Austria OK compost HOME TÜV Austria OK compost INDUSTRIAL

OK compost HOME + INDUSTRIAL (TÜV Austria)

TÜV Austria's OK compost INDUSTRIAL label confirms compostability in industrial facilities. OK compost HOME is the stricter test: it confirms the material breaks down at the lower temperatures of a home compost pile.

For commercial buyers: An independent European certification that backs up compostability claims in RFPs and sustainability reports.
