We support:

- Bulk production with repeatable specifications
- Printing aligned with compostability certification rules
All printing is integrated into our in-house compostable bag manufacturing process. This scope is focused on manufacturing execution and compliance, not consumer-facing design services.

We provide flexographic printing for compostable bags using water-based inks.
Technical scope includes:

- Logos, text, barcodes, and compliance markings
- Consistent color control across production batches
Not supported:
- Solvent-based inks
- Decorative or photographic-grade printing
