Some of Iggesund's Invercote paperboard is now certified as compostable according to the European standard EN 13432, which means that it is suitable for both industrial and household composting. "Paperboard made from virgin fiber is a natural material with very few additives, so it is no surprise that Invercote has gained this certification," said Jan-Erik Winlund, who is responsible for product safety within Iggesund Paperboard. "However, it is still important to have scientific documentation confirming this." Enditem
