Plastic straws are forbidden and you are a bit lost on the authorized alternatives? The whole Drinking-straw team is at your side to help you in your choice and ecological transition.

Not all biodegradable straws are compliant and authorized. Indeed, the notion “biodegradable” should always be assimilated into a notion of time. Plastic straws are biodegradable, but they take several hundred years to decompose, leaving fine particles dangerous to the environment. That’s why it’s best to choose a biodegradable and compostable home straw made from natural materials to ensure rapid decomposition. Ideally, an eco-friendly, disposable straw should be compostable at home. This means that once in your vegetable compost, the soil glasses will eat and your compost can be used to feed your plants!

So-called “compostable” straw is environmentally friendly and is composted in a factory at very high and controlled temperatures. Composting at home is another way of using: a certified “home compost” product can be composted at home. It contains no plastic and is made from organic materials. The product will therefore decompose naturally by organic matter.

We find among the home compostable straws: the straws made of natural wheat stem, pasta, reed stem or rice. However, it is essential to check with your supplier to be sure that the product is certified. There are many products on the market that do not comply with the current AGEC anti-plastic law.

Home compostable straws can be disposed of in-home composting or in a regular garbage can. The particularity of home compostable straws is that they turn into fertilizer in only a few weeks, or even days (depending on the compost).
