The products have had biodegradation and ecotoxicity testing in order to receive BPI certification.

For packaging converters looking for compostable solutions, Michelman now offers three high-performance products to help make design and performance needs a reality. Michelman continues building on its 70-year history of sustainable technology as three of its PFAS-free coatings, Michem Coat 2000, Michem Coat 525, and Hydraban 8000 have recently complied with the specifications established by the American Society for Testing and Materials standards ASTM D6400 and D6868 per the terms and conditions of Biodegradable Products Institute’s (BPI) certification program for compostable products.
These products have had biodegradation and ecotoxicity testing to receive BPI certification. This testing means that Michelman BPI certified coatings are proven to biodegrade in an industrial compost environment and can be used in quantities typical for the applications they are designed for with minimal limitations.
The newly developed Michem Coat 2000 and Michem Coat 525 are functional coatings that provide maximum oil and grease performance in fiber-based food service applications. Hydraban 8000 is a water-resistant paper coating with excellent gluability and printability used for food packaging.
With global development ongoing, Michelman’s portfolio of compostable coatings is currently available only in North America.
