DESCRIPTION

BS ISO 23517:2021


This standard BS ISO 23517:2021 Plastics. Soil biodegradable materials for mulch films for use in agriculture and horticulture. Requirements and test methods regarding biodegradation, ecotoxicity and control of constituents is classified in these ICS categories:
  • 65.020.20 Plant growing
  • 83.140.10 Films and sheets

This document is applicable to biodegradable plastic materials used to produce mulch films or biodegradable mulch films ready to be used for mulch applications in agriculture and horticulture.

This document specifies test methods and evaluation criteria by addressing the following characteristics:

  1. control of constituents;

  2. biodegradation;

  3. negative effects on terrestrial organisms.

NOTE

This document is construed in a way that it can be used to assess other soil biodegradable plastic products that do not qualify as mulch films. For example: drip tape, twine, clips, and plant pots.
