Certifications & Claims

One ingredient.
Nothing to hide.

We make the simplest straw on the market. A hollow grass stem, grown in a field, cut to length. Here is exactly what that means for your sustainability claims, your procurement team, and your guests.

100% Natural — One Ingredient

Verified

Our straws are hollow grass stems. That is the only ingredient. No binders, no coatings, no additives, no processing chemicals. The cleanest label in the straw category.

Pesticide-Free

Grower Certified

Grown without pesticides or synthetic fertilisers. Our partner farms use traditional agricultural methods. No chemical residue on the product.

Compostable & Biodegradable

Verified

Natural grass stems biodegrade in standard commercial and home compost. No microplastics. No PFAS. No synthetic materials. Composts cleanly and completely.

Ocean Safe

Verified

If a Naturally Straw enters the ocean, it biodegrades. It does not fragment into microplastics. It does not persist in the food chain. It is the only straw that is genuinely ocean safe.

Allergen Free

Grower Certified

No gluten, no nuts, no dairy, no common allergens. The product is a dried grass stem — no processing facility cross-contamination. Suitable for all dietary requirements.

Carbon Negative

In Assessment

Grass crops sequester carbon during growth. Our straws are not processed, not manufactured, and not transported from a factory — they are grown and cut. Formal carbon accounting is in progress.

BPI Compostability Certification

In Progress

We are pursuing BPI (Biodegradable Products Institute) certification — the gold standard for compostability claims in North America. Expected completion 2026.

USDA BioPreferred
