The netting that hugs your fresh produce is made from a soft, fully compostable cellulose fiber.

Home Compostable
Packaging
The cellulose tube netting has been developed by VPZ Packnatur®. The netting is being produced at their headquarters in Austria, with the aim of eliminating plastic netting from fruit and vegetable sections and eradicating its presence in any environment where it might be unwarranted.
Cellulose Fiber made from Beechwood, recovered from Forest Thinning
The raw material used in Packnatur® cellulose tube netting is 100% beechwood, which is recovered from the thinning of FSC®– or PEFC-certified forests in central Europe. Beechwood forests are naturally occurring primary forests and are able to regenerate themselves, without the need for reforesting.
The netting is 100% home compostable, which means that under natural composting conditions it degrades completely in less than 12 weeks.
How do you compost it?
- Remove the metal clip.
- Add it to your home compost.
- Wait for nature to work its magic.
