GB/T 18006.2-1999

This standard specifies the test methods for evaluating the degradation performance of single-use and degradable lunch containers and drinking sets, including biodegradation, photodegradation, and environmental fragmentation tests. It is applied in China to assess the environmental safety and disposal characteristics of disposable tableware made from materials like paper, plant fiber, or bioplastics. The standard is used by manufacturers, testing laboratories, and regulatory bodies to verify compliance with degradability requirements for consumer goods in the food packaging and catering industry.
