A PLANTPAPER Paperpot
Our Paperpot is a biodegradable paper sleeve that wraps growing media, replacing conventional plastic pot or bag. The Paperpot goes with the plant to the field or garden, where the roots will easily grow through the paper. Differently from other papers in the market, our paper doesn't leave any microplastic behind when it biodegrades. Our certificates are our guarantee.

BE AWARE WHAT YOUR PAPER IS LEAVING BEHIND
Important differences between Degradable, Biodegradable and Compostable
DEGRADABLE
Degradable simply means that something breaks down into smaller pieces over time. Today, most Paperpots sold in the horticulture market contains plastic fibres that will degrade into microplastic. It is invisible to the human eye, but it is still plastic pollution.
BIODEGRADABLE
Biodegradable is also degrading, but it does something more: It is broken down by the metabolism of micro-organisms, leading to the production of CO2, H2O, methane, biomass and mineral salts, depending on the environmental conditions of the process.
COMPOSTABLE
When something is compostable, it means that it biodegrades. But it will completely degrade within a certain amount of time, under certain conditions, leaving no harmful residues - such as microplastics or heavy metals in the soil. Composting has many beneficial purposes, including improvement and fertilization of the soil.
