Cedar Grove Logo

In Japan a certification system is being operated by the Japan BioPlastics Association (JBPA). Basic principles are comparable to that of the seedling logo and BPI.

The Australasian Bioplastics Association (ABA) represents members in Australia and New Zealand. ABA runs a certification scheme based on Australian standards. 

Consequently, industrial compostability is based on AS 4736-2006 including an earthworm toxicity test (Section 5.5.2). In addition, the seedling logo is used under license of European Bioplastics.
