In 2011, the practical application of organic waste bags made of compostable polymer ecovio® underwent large-scale testing in Bad Duerkheim district (Germany) in a joint pilot project involving the waste management company AWB and BASF.
Some 65,000 households each received ten compostable organic waste bags for collecting and disposing of organic waste in the organic waste bin. It was investigated how satisfied residents were with the bags and whether the bags could be processed into compost without any problems at the organic composting plant Gruenstadt owned by the waste management company GML.
