Soil-biodegradable mulch film for crop programs
For growers and agricultural distributors specifying a field-use film rather than compostable packaging.
Before comparing products
Resolve these three buying decisions
Crop cycle
Crop, growing season, climate, UV exposure and till-in timing.
Field performance
Width, gauge, colour, mechanical laying and weed-control target.
Correct standard
Use soil-biodegradation evidence such as EN 17033 scope, not packaging claims.
Category overview
Four soil-biodegradable mulch films are certified to EN 17033 (TÜV OK Biodegradable SOIL) — the standard that matters in the field, because the film is tilled into the soil after harvest rather than composted. Blends range from 40:60 to 65:35 PBAT:PLA across 12–35 μm gauges: a transparent greenhouse film, a black weed-suppression film (E153 plant carbon black), a vegetable-grade film, and a durable 4-season option.
The economics work on labour: tilling in eliminates film retrieval — roughly 30 hours per hectare saved — and every film is ecotoxicity-tested for germination and earthworm safety before it ships.
Scope note: portfolio details are starting points, not a blanket certificate claim. Confirm the current certificate, formulation, finished-pack components and validity in the signed order specification.
