Company Overview

About Pure Form Solution

Pure Form Solution is a leader in sustainable packaging, offering 100% compostable and biodegradable products designed to replace single-use plastics across every industry. Based in Austin, Texas, the company manufactures an extensive line of PHA (polyhydroxyalkanoate) and PLA (polylactic acid) products — from straws and utensils to rigid containers and beverage packaging.

PHA — the core material behind most Pure Form Solution products — is produced through bacterial fermentation of plant-based oils. It is the only bioplastic certified to biodegrade in all real-world environments: marine, soil, home compost, and industrial composting facilities. Unlike conventional plastics, PHA breaks down completely into water and CO₂ with zero microplastic residue.

The company holds six TÜV Austria certifications and serves businesses seeking end-to-end sustainability transitions through structured programs for hotels, restaurants, schools, healthcare, and direct consumers. Pure Form Solution was showcased at the U.S. House Committee on Small Business' annual Small Business Showcase in May 2026.
