Is all the non-plastic packaging compostable?

General Topics

Hello, I got the framework DIY edition. Most of the packaging I can categorize as cardboard (recyclable & compostable :smiley: ) or plastic (recyclable :smiley: ) --except for two materials:

  1. There’s two white fabric-y pouches
  2. soft brown paper bag that looks like it’s stuffed with lint?

I compost in the backyard and just want to make sure if those are safe to throw in there. Thanks to anyone who takes the time to read this!

The white fabric-y pouches, probably not.
The padded bag, yes.

The padded bag probably contains cellulose fibre, same as paper or cotton.

The white fabric feels very much like polymer, possibly PET (polyethylene terephthalate, used in pop bottles and “Arctic fleece” clothing). Not compostable but probably recyclable.
