Drinking straws made from FSC-certified paper in black, pack size: 100 pieces. Length: 23 cm, diameter: 8 mm. FSC certified (responsible forest management). FSC stands for "Forest Stewardship Council" and is an international certification system for more sustainable forest management. The wood used in furniture, toys, books, notebooks, or pencils with the FSC label comes from forests that are managed responsibly. There are ten globally applicable principles that all FSC standards in various countries must adhere to. Forests and plantations are FSC certified if they are managed according to stricter ecological and social principles to support the long-term preservation of forests.
Biodegradable. Biodegradable products are made from materials that are completely broken down by naturally occurring microorganisms and converted into water, carbon dioxide, and biomass. Unlike compostable products, they do not need to be broken down within a specific timeframe. The production primarily involves cellulose and fiber products based on sugarcane and palm leaves, as well as products derived from starch plants. According to the definition, it does not matter whether renewable or non-renewable, i.e., fossil resources are used in production. Under real environmental conditions, biodegradable plastics gradually break down into microplastics, which decompose very slowly into their chemical components. Oxo-degradable plastics have also been enriched with additives that break down into microplastic particles when exposed to heat or sunlight, but these are hardly decomposed.
