New Zealand's largest organic apple grower, Bostock, have introduced compostable apple stickers, a first in the Southern hemisphere. "The sticker laminate is 100 per cent industrial compostable and so is the backing the stickers come on. Bostock New Zealand has also been trialling other sustainable and compostable packaging options across its products. For fruit where the skin is not typically eaten, we would love to see compostable stickers on both local and export fruit. We will definitely work with the supplier to roll out more compostable stickers across our apples in 2020".
