Normec OWS recently participated in the annual meeting of the Compostable by Design Platform (CbDP), an important forum for promoting compostable materials in Europe. Sam Deconinck represented Normec OWS as a panelist and shared insights on the importance of empirically based testing, field validation, and clear guidelines for compostable products. The discussions highlighted the need for collaboration across the entire value chain, from material developers to waste management companies. Normec OWS looks forward to continuing its contribution to the CbDP and supporting the development of practical, circular compostable solutions.
Whether it’s monitoring, permitting, quality control, or complex environmental issues, together we provide reliable insights you can rely on with confidence.
Normec OWS is partnering with the FITI Testing & Research Institute to promote testing for biodegradability and compostability.
We are pleased to announce that Normec OWS has been accredited by DIN CERTCO to conduct tests in accordance with the DIN Geprüft Marine Biodegradable Certification Scheme. This new certification complements our existing accreditation by DIN CERTCO for testing industrial compostability, home compostability, and soil degradation. With this expansion, Normec OWS strengthens its position as a versatile partner in the field of biodegradability and sustainability testing.
On May 9, 2025, Normec OWS participated in activities as part of International Compost Awareness Week, thereby contributing to global discussions on composting and sustainable materials.
Normec OWS is proud to be part of the REBIOLUTION project, a European initiative in which nine partners from seven EU countries are collaborating. Together, we are developing innovative, bio-based, biodegradable, and recyclable plastics that address the sustainability challenges in the packaging and agricultural sectors.
