Why Composting?

We love to see Cruz Foam turned into healthy soil. Standalone Cruz Foam is a useful compost amendment, and we encourage consumers to compost it. We are constantly striving to increase the availability of industrial composting by working with legislators, governments, and communities. Cruz has passed testing in an industrial compost setting per ASTM D6400 and ASTM D5338 standards.

Why Now?

The world is changing, and so is the future of waste. The time is ripe for innovative products to make meaningful changes. Cruz Foam, which is compostable on its own and recyclable when paired with paper, is at the forefront of this movement towards a more sustainable future.

USDA Logo

Bio-Based Product

Cruz Foam is proud to be a part of the USDA BioPreferred Program®, a USDA-led initiative that aims to facilitate the development and expansion of markets for biobased products.
Compostable Icon

Compostable

Cruz Foam meets the ASTM 6400 standard for compostability, and it biodegrades within 100 days in industrial compost conditions. 

Food Waste Icon

Made from Upcycled Food-Waste

Cruz Foam is made from upcycled food waste—materials that would otherwise end up in landfills. By giving these byproducts a second life, we create foam that’s not only functional, but also compostable. Because it’s primarily made from food-based ingredients, Cruz Foam breaks down easily and serves as a valuable input for compost systems.
