Lomi Approved
The Lomi is a countertop appliance that turns food waste and other compostable products into dirt in as little as 4 hours. Cruz Foam is the first product to score a perfect 100 on the Lomi-approved test. This means our product broke down in the Lomi within 1 cycle whereas most compostable products take 2 cycles
Compostable
Cruz Foam meets the ASTM 6400 and D6868 D5338 standards for compostability. Cruz Foam biodegrades within 103 days in industrial conditions.
Bio-Based Product
Cruz Foam is proud to be a part of the USDA BioPreferred ProgramⓇ, a USDA-led initiative that aims to facilitate the development and expansion of markets for biobased products.
70% upcycled food-waste
Cruz Foam is made from 70% upcycled food waste ingredients. These ingredients were destined for landfill or other waste sites and we are able to give them a second life in our foam. Our unique makeup makes Cruz Foam an excellent feedstock for compost because our foam is mostly food.
Engineered to work. Designed to disappear.
Why Now?
The world is changing, and so is the future of waste. The time is ripe for innovative products to make meaningful changes. Cruz Foam, which is compostable on its own and recyclable when paired with paper, is at the forefront of this movement towards a more sustainable future.
Why Composting?
We love to see Cruz Foam turned into healthy soil. Standalone Cruz Foam is a useful compost amendment and we encourage consumers to compost it in their homes. We are constantly striving to increase the availability of industrial composting by working with legislators, governments, and communities.
