Best Answer

I work at a mill that makes colored construction paper and I can tell you that we do not use any coloring agents that would be harmful if composted or any other material that would be exceptionally bad for you or the environment. Otherwise, colored construction paper will decompose just like any other paper.

Is soup can paper compostable?

Most likely not. Paper containers such as the ones used for a pint of milk used to be made from paper and glycerin for waterproofing, but recent paper containers are lined with a thin sheet of plastic, and are not suitable for home composting. Industrial composting facilities that have a precise control on temperature and moisture can probably degrade even those though. Paper cups for coffee or soup are fully biodegradable and compostable.
