Shellac
Bioglitter Pure, Pure Opal, Vivid and Holo contain shellac

- Approved by The Vegetarian Society.
- Widely used in food coatings such as cake glaze.
- This is a natural and environmentally friendly process and no insects are harmed in this.
- This does mean these ranges are not vegan friendly.

Biodegradable
Bioglitter will not just dissolve in water.
It needs environmental bacteria and other microorganisms to be present to biodegrade.
After entering the natural environment, microorganisms consume bioglitter and turn it into biomass, water and carbon dioxide.
The time it takes Bioglitter to biodegrade will depend on factors such as temperature, moisture and microorganisms present.
The Bioglitter Pure Range is also suitable for industrial and home composting.
