Reyenvas, part of the Armando Alvarez group, markets BioTutor®, a compostable horticultural twine. It has been put to the test at the Auray station1. Here is some initial feedback.

Available in black or cream, this string is made from bio-compostable biopolymers and is certified ‘OK Industrial Compost’ in accordance with standard EN 13432. Industrial composting is the quickest and most effective way of managing end-of-life. Twine degrades thanks to microbial activity at temperatures >50°C. After degradation, only CO2, water molecules and a little biomass will remain.

There are many variations of passages of Lorem Ipsum available, but the majority have suffered alteration in some form, by injected humour, or randomised words which don't look even slightly believable. If you are going to use a passage of Lorem Ipsum, you need to be sure there isn't anything embarrassing hidden in the middle of text. All the Lorem Ipsum generators on the Internet tend to repeat predefined chunks as necessary, making this the first true generator on the Internet. It uses a dictionary of over 200 Latin words, combined with a handful of model sentence structures, to generate Lorem Ipsum which looks reasonable. The generated Lorem Ipsum is therefore always free from repetition, injected humour, or non-characteristic words etc.
