Making the switch to BioPak is simple. It’s better for the planet. It’s better for people. It’s better for business.
At our core, we exist to create sustainable packaging that puts the planet first. Since we began in 2006, we've become globally recognised brand. Businesses of all sizes leverage the BioPak brand to win the hearts of conscious consumers.
But we're far from done. We're committed to constant research and development to find better, more sustainable ways of doing things.
We have a whole team dedicated to staying at the forefront of technology, making sure we're leading the charge with the best packaging solutions and are staying ahead of plastic bans and laws (in fact, we are regularly in discussion with governments in relation to regulations).
What does all this mean for you? You'll be choosing the most sustainable packaging solution currently on the market, while also building credibility and future-proofing your business.
Better for the Planet
We’re disrupting the current take, make, waste model and leading the way toward a truly circular economy.
Packaging Made From Plants
We use rapidly renewable, plant-based materials designed for the circular economy. A sustainable alternative to regular plastic.
Responsibly Sourced & Manufactured
Our packaging is manufactured from responsibly sourced materials – like our FSC™ certified paper and wood packaging.
Certified Compostable
We support composting as the best end-of-life solution for food packaging. Look for our industrial compostable (AS4736 & EN13432) and home compostable (AS5810 & NF T51-800) logos.
Emissions Reduction
Our Emission Reduction Plan will fund research, education and advocacy projects to grow the availability of composting as an end-of-life option in the markets we operate in.
Anti-Greenwashing
We’re a trusted voice in the industry. Other products may claim they’re compostable, recyclable or sustainable, but without proof or certifications, these claims are likely to be greenwashing.
Better for People
By working to protect the planet, we also need to ask, who for? We’re not just taking a stand for the planet – we’re taking a stand for people through social accountability and charity partnerships.
Social Accountability
We’ve set a code of conduct for our manufacturing partners to make sure people are treated fairly in the areas we operate. Our partner facilities are certified to SA8000, SMETA or BSCI.
Give Back Fund
We donate 5% of our profits to social and environmental charities. Since 2012, we’ve donated our time, energy and a total of $5.8 million – including planting or rescuing 210,630 trees through Rainforest Rescue and donating 1,024,389 meals through Oz Harvest, Foodbank Australia, and Kiwi Harvest.
Certified B Corp
Certified B Corporations meet the highest standards of verified social and environmental performance and public transparency. At BioPak, we’re B Corp because we believe in using business as a force for good.
Composting Initiative
Composting Initiative: Compost Connect is our composting initiative connecting businesses to compost pickup services. Last year, we diverted 4,000+ tonnes from landfill.

Still Have Questions?
Thinking of making the switch to BioPak? We understand if you’ve still got a few questions about our sustainable packaging. We’ve answered some of our most common questions here.
How do I know if a packaging product is recyclable in Australia?
Under the new plastic bans in Australia, can I switch to any item that claims to be compostable?
When a compostable item is allowed as an alternative, it should be certified by the Australian BioPlastic Association (ABA). ABA is the local accreditation body and is the only source of truth to ensure products are certified to AU and NZ standards. Their website has a list of companies and products that are certified. If a product is not on this list, it’s not certified compostable in Australia and New Zealand.
How do I know if packaging is created from responsibly sourced materials?
- The majority of our manufacturing partners' facilities are certified to ISO 14001 Environmental Management Systems, and two are in the process of achieving certifications.
- We’re B Corp certified, which means we’ve met verified higher levels of social and environmental performance, transparency, and accountability.
- An FSC™ certification on our wood and paper products makes sure our wood is sourced from responsibly managed forests.
