BAR-U-EAT to have world’s first BPI certified compostable bar wrapper

America-based granola bar company BAR-U-EAT has released its new biodegradable, BPI certified compostable packaging for their individually wrapped bars. The company ensures that their packaging will break down properly in commercial compost systems and not contaminate the environment.

The new packaging is composed of plant-based materials from FSC Certified sustainably managed forests. It additionally complies with the specifications established in the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) D6400 to be aerobically composted and is biodegradable.

Every year over 2 billion pre-packaged snack, protein, and energy bars are consumed, almost all of which come in single use plastics or multi-layered wrappers. This creates millions of pounds of waste from a non-renewable, non-biodegradable resource. BAR-U-EAT’s new packaging being made from renewable, sustainably sourced materials can break down to become nutrient rich soil. This type of packaging is at the forefront of where sustainable packaging technology is headed and where it needs to go to combat waste and the use of finite resources. 

BAR-U-EAT’s longstanding mission is to change the way we think about the food that we eat and how it’s packaged. They believe that packaged food should be simple and free of oils and preservatives and be packaged in a way that is less wasteful and regenerative to our planet.
