Ad Review
On September 8, 2020, the BBB completed an Ad Review concerning the business website claiming "Only Biodegradable Ingredients". The Federal Trade Commission states that items destined for landfills, incinerators, or recycling facilities will not degrade within a year, so unqualified biodegradable claims for them should not be made.
The BBB Code of Advertising Violation of BBB COA Section 36.2 Degradable states advertisers may make an unqualified degradable claim if they have competent and reliable scientific evidence that the entire product or package will completely break down and return to nature within a reasonably short period of time after customary disposal. For items entering the solid waste stream, advertisers should substantiate that the items completely decompose within one year after customary disposal. Advertisers must qualify, clearly and conspicuously, degradable claims to the extent necessary to avoid confusion about the product's or package's ability to degrade in the environment where it is customarily disposed or the rate and extent of degradation.
The business did not respond to BBB's request for revisions and clarification in its advertising.
