Committed to a Greener Future
At Arth Biobag, sustainability isn’t just a buzzword—it’s the foundation of everything we do. We believe in creating packaging solutions that not only meet your needs but also protect our planet for future generations. Our commitment to sustainability drives innovation and guides our practices, from material sourcing to manufacturing and beyond.
Our Sustainable Practices
Eco-Friendly Materials
We prioritize using compostable and biodegradable materials that significantly reduce environmental impact. Our products are crafted from renewable resources like corn starch, potato starch, and other plant-based materials that decompose naturally, returning to the earth as nutrients within 60 to 180 days under the right composting conditions.
Circular Economy
We fully embrace the principles of the circular economy by designing products that can be returned to nature after use. This approach helps close the loop on waste, ensuring that our packaging solutions contribute to a regenerative system, minimizing environmental harm.
Energy-Efficient Manufacturing
Our production facility in Kigali, Rwanda, is designed with sustainability at its core. We utilize energy-efficient machinery and sustainable processes to reduce our carbon footprint, aligning our manufacturing practices with our environmental and sustainability goals.
Reducing Carbon Footprint
By sourcing materials locally and optimizing our supply chain, we reduce transportation emissions and support local economies. This strategy not only helps in lowering our overall carbon footprint but also strengthens the communities in which we operate.
Certifications & Standards
Our commitment to sustainability is backed by adherence to globally recognized certifications and standards:

Our products meet these international standards for composting, ensuring they break down completely without leaving harmful residues.
