Atlas Organics joins BPI Board of Directors Atlas Organics is the first composter board member in the Biodegradable Products Institute’s more than 20-year history. The Biodegradable Products Institute (BPI), a leading certifier of compostable products and packaging, has announced the election results for its Board of Directors, including the first composter in BPI’s more than 20-year history. Atlas Organics, a Spartanburg, South Carolina-based commercial composter, will be represented by Leslie Rodgers, director of business development. Composters like Atlas Organics will now be eligible for BPI’s Board thanks to a new Stakeholder Membership program initiated in late 2019 that creates membership opportunities for organizations not directly certifying products and materials with BPI.
