# The Green Comparison: Bio-Based Cellulose Sequins vs. Traditional PET
Sustainability is no longer about labels; it is about **Data**. For B2B buyers serving the luxury European market, understanding the biodegradability of your embellishments is now a compliance requirement under the EU Digital Product Passport (DPP).
## 1. Traditional PET (The Recycled Route)
While GRS-certified PET sequins (like our standard line) reduce carbon footprint by 60%, they are not biodegradable. They are part of a **Circular Loop**, meant for high-durability garments that last for years.
## 2. Bio-Based Cellulose (The Biodegradable Route)
Our new 2027 Bio-Sequin line is manufactured from FSC-certified wood pulp.
- **The Advantage**: They are industrially compostable (EN 13432 compliant).
- **The Trade-off**: Slightly less heat-resistant than PET. Best for high-end boutique collections that prioritize "Zero-Waste" narratives.
