PLA product waste does not meet industrial composting conditions

Problem Phenomenon
PLA products do not degrade under home composting conditions.
Cause Analysis
PLA needs industrial composting conditions (high temperature 58-70°C, high humidity, microbial activity) to degrade effectively, and home composting does not satisfy this.
Solution
Clearly mark the industrial composting certification logo; do not claim home compostability.
Key Takeaway
The degradation condition of PLA is industrial composting, not home composting.
