Can I sell, transport and apply compost certified to BSI PAS 100?
In England and Wales, compost certified to BSI PAS 100 is of recognised quality but it is still considered a waste. Compost needs to comply with the Quality Protocol for Compost in order for it to be accepted as a product. Although quality compost can be sold, it requires regulatory control for its handling, transport and application. In Scotland and Northern Ireland, compost produced to BSI PAS 100 is considered a product and therefore free of these additional regulatory controls.
