U.S. Expertise. Scalable Supply.
Established in Florida in 2014, AMS•COMPOSTABLE is a U.S. company built for high-volume buyers.
With a lean, expert-led supply model, we focus on scalable, full-container programs designed for efficient distribution.
Built for buyers who cannot afford inconsistency.
Our Manufacturing Model
Our manufacturing is organized around three core product programs, each designed for high-volume, repeat container orders:
Sugarcane Bagasse (SCB)
Molded fiber foodservice packaging manufactured for durability and performance in hot, greasy, and high-moisture food applications.
PLA (Polylactic Acid)
PLA beverage and cutlery programs supporting cold beverages, hot coffee service, lids, and cutlery, manufactured for consistent fit and repeat ordering.
Compostable Bags & Liners (DCB)
Durable compostable bags and liners designed for strength, consistency, and dependable supply across foodservice and institutional accounts.
Each facility is optimized for repeat manufacturing runs, ensuring consistent specifications across container programs.
Program Structure for Serious Volume Buyers
Our sales model is designed for operational efficiency, pricing stability, and repeatable high-volume supply.
- Full-container programs only
- Built for wholesalers, distributors, and institutional buyers
- FCL-based pricing structure
- Delivery included to dock or bay level (U.S. only).
This approach helps ensure cleaner forecasting, more stable logistics, and stronger long-term supply continuity.
Pricing Structure
Our pricing reflects supply chain efficiency, not layered markups.
Our model supports distributor margins by:
Reducing intermediary costs
Stabilizing per-unit pricing
Enabling repeatable forecasting and production planning
We believe competitive pricing comes from operational control, not promotional tactics.
Certifications and Compliance
Our products are designed to meet applicable compostability standards, including ASTM D6400 and ASTM D6868, where relevant.
Select product categories also meet OK Home Compost requirements.
Our manufacturing operations are certified to ISO 9001, ISO 14001, and ISO 45001 standards.
