Certified Biobased Product

Desserto certified by USDA Biomaterials

Desserto® Earns USDA Certified Biobased Product Label.

 Adriano Di Marti S.A. de C.V. has earned the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) Certified Biobased Product label. Third-party verification for a product's biobased content is administered through the USDA BioPreferred® Program, an initiative created by the 2002 Farm Bill (and recently reauthorized by the 2018 Farm Bill). One of the goals of the BioPreferred Program is to increase the development, purchase and use of biobased products.

USDA Certification for biomaterials, Desserto cactus vegan leather

From 65% to 90%

The USDA Certified Biobased Product label play a key role in transparency, we have now certified our material's range Desserto® BIO+ with 65% biobased content and next step is to certify our 90% biobased range line. 


The USDA Certified Biobased Product label displays a product's biobased content, which is the portion of a product that comes from a renewable source, such as plant, animal, marine, or forestry feedstocks. Utilizing renewable, biobased materials displaces the need for non-renewable petroleum-based chemicals. Biobased products, through petroleum displacement, have played an increasingly important role in reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions that exacerbate global climate change.
Biobased products are cost-comparative, readily available, and perform as well as or better than their conventional counterparts.

DESSERTO IS AWARDED WITH THE USDA BIOPREFERRED® PROGRAM CHAMPION BADGE

The USDA BioPreferred® Program is celebrating 20 years as the Federal Government's official advocate and market accelerator for biobased products and this year has awarded Desserto® with its Champion badge. 


Desserto® as a Program Participant, has been instrumental to our success, and we want to extend our sincere thanks for your involvement and support. We also want to recognize you as a BioPreferred Program Champion and show our appreciation for businesses like yours that have shown faith in our mission. This badge signifies your long-term commitment to using renewable materials, reducing our reliance on petroleum, supporting the bioeconomy, and bettering the planet - The USDA BioPreferred Program® said.

"We applaud DessertO® for earning the USDA Certified Biobased Product label"

"We applaud Adriano Di Marti S.A. de C.V.  (Desserto®) for earning the USDA Certified Biobased Product label," said Vernell Thompson, USDA BioPreferred Program. "Products from Adriano Di Marti S.A. de C.V. are contributing to an ever-expanding marketplace that adds value to renewable agriculture commodities, creates jobs in rural communities, and decreases our reliance on petroleum."
According to a report that USDA released in July 2019, biobased products contributed $459 billion to the U.S. economy in 2016 (a 17% increase from 2014) and support, directly and indirectly, 4.6 million jobs. The report's research team estimates the reduction of fossil fuels and associated GHG emissions from biobased products equivalent to approximately 12 million metric tons of carbon dioxide (CO2) prevented as of 2016. The increased production of renewable chemicals and biobased products contributes to the development and expansion of the U.S. bioeconomy - where society looks to agriculture for sustainable sources of fuel, energy, chemicals, and products.
