Biodegradables, from Biodegradability to sustainable products

Understanding biodegradability in detail

At an early stage of product development, it is important to understand if and how biodegradation happens. BASF develops a range of certified biodegradable products which are used in numerous applications including soil-biodegradable agricultural mulch films, composable bags and home & personal care products. In this process, BASF researchers use various methods to measure the biodegradation of a material in different habitats.
