DECO 60 Bioglitter® SPARKLE

DECO 60 Bioglitter® SPARKLE is a next-generation decorative glitter developed as a more sustainable alternative to traditional plastic glitter. It is made from plant-based cellulose derived from wood grown in sustainably managed plantations, including eucalyptus. According to the manufacturer, the raw materials come from PEFC™-certified sources.

This is more than just an “eco-look” product. Bioglitter® technology is designed so that, in natural freshwater environments, microorganisms break down the particles into water, carbon dioxide and biomass. Biodegradability is assessed using relevant international testing methods. The manufacturer states that the product meets OECD 301 biodegradability requirements and complies with EU microplastics regulation EU 2023/2055.

And most importantly, it still looks like real glitter: bright reflections, clearly visible particles and an intense sparkle.

Particle Size

0.40 mm / 0.015"

These are medium-sized hexagonal glitter particles, creating a clearly visible effect without appearing excessively coarse.

This particle size is particularly suitable when you want more than a subtle pearlescent shimmer and prefer a distinct glitter effect.

Where Can It Be Used?

DECO 60 Bioglitter® was specifically developed for:

  • Crafts
  • Candle decoration
  • DIY projects
  • Paper decoration
  • Wood decoration
  • Decorative surfaces
  • Floristry
  • Plant and bouquet decoration
  • Event decorations
  • Creative workshops
  • School and nursery craft projects
  • A variety of decorative effects

It can be sprinkled onto adhesive, applied to surfaces, mixed into suitable decorative systems or used to create individual glitter accents.

Is It Suitable for Candles?

It can be used for decorative candle projects, but it is important to consider where the glitter is applied.

DECO 60 SPARKLE is compatible with dry applications and oil-based systems, and is temperature-resistant up to approximately 120 °C.

It can therefore be used, for example, for:

  • Decorating the exterior of candles
  • Surface decorative elements
  • Wax melt decoration
  • Decorative wax ornaments
  • Small glitter accents on the wax surface

However, we do not recommend applying large amounts of glitter directly around the wick or within the active burning zone.

Any additional material in a candle can affect its burning behaviour. Before making candles for sale, we always recommend conducting a burn test with the specific wax, wick, fragrance and amount of glitter used.

Krevo Recommendation: Start with a very small amount and use the glitter primarily as a decorative surface accent.

How Is Bioglitter® Different from Conventional Glitter?

Conventional glitter is usually made from PET or other synthetic polymers. It creates a very strong sparkle, but it is not biodegradable and can persist in the environment as microplastic particles.

Bioglitter® is made from plant-based cellulose. It was developed to retain the characteristic glitter effect while reducing the environmental impact associated with conventional plastic glitter.

It is worth noting that Bioglitter® may have a slightly softer optical effect than highly reflective PET glitter, but the sparkle remains clear and vivid.

Why Bioglitter®?

Bioglitter® is not simply a generic term for “eco-friendly glitter”.

Bioglitter® is a registered trademark of Sigmund Lindner GmbH, and the product is manufactured in Germany. The manufacturer has been developing Bioglitter® technology for many years and states that its products are designed with biodegradability and EU microplastics regulations in mind.

This matters because the term “biodegradable glitter” alone does not guarantee that a product has the same composition or testing background.

Here, you are purchasing an original SiLi / Sigmund Lindner Bioglitter® product.

Colours

Available in the Krevo range:

  • Silver – classic, bright silver
  • Holo Silver – holographic silver with rainbow reflections in the light
  • Sahara – warm sand / gold shade
  • Apricot – soft apricot colour
  • Rose – pink glitter
  • Red – classic, intense red
  • Dark Purple – rich, deep purple
  • Blue – vivid blue
  • Ice Blue – light, icy blue
  • Green – intense green

The holographic version behaves differently from standard metallic glitter. Its microstructure splits light into different colours of the spectrum, producing the strongest rainbow effect in direct sunlight or under directional LED lighting.

Usage

Use according to the desired effect.

For sprinkling: Apply a thin layer of adhesive or another suitable binding agent, then sprinkle with glitter. Shake off the excess, which can be reused.

For mixing: Add small amounts to the chosen material and mix thoroughly. As the composition and viscosity of different systems vary considerably, we recommend carrying out a small test before preparing a larger batch.

For wax: Use a small amount and conduct a burn test. Avoid concentrated layers of glitter near the wick.

For floristry: It can be used to coat plants, arrangements and decorative elements when combined with a suitable fixing agent.

Important

This product is intended for decorative use.

Do not use in food.
Do not use in cosmetics.
Avoid contact with eyes.
Keep out of reach of children when not in use.

Adult supervision is recommended when using this product for children's creative projects.

When using glitter in candles or other materials exposed to high temperatures, individual compatibility and safety testing is essential before making the finished product.

Is This Glitter Really Biodegradable?

Yes. DECO 60 Bioglitter® is made from plant-based cellulose. The manufacturer states that, in natural freshwater environments, microorganisms break down the particles into CO₂, water and biomass, with biodegradability assessed using international testing methods.

Is It Microplastic?

The manufacturer states that DECO 60 Bioglitter® SPARKLE complies with the requirements of EU Regulation 2023/2055, which addresses synthetic polymer microparticles.

Is It Completely Plastic-Free?

DECO 60 SPARKLE is positioned as a plastic-free decorative Bioglitter® product. However, it is important to distinguish between the different Bioglitter® product lines, as not every Bioglitter® formulation from the manufacturer has an identical composition.

What Is Bioglitter® Made From?

Its main ingredient is plant-based cellulose derived from wood, including eucalyptus. According to the manufacturer, the raw material comes from sustainably managed, PEFC™-certified plantations.

Is Bioglitter® as Sparkly as Plastic Glitter?

The effect is very similar, although conventional PET glitter may reflect light slightly more intensely under certain conditions. Bioglitter® retains a distinct glitter effect, but the sparkle of some colours may appear slightly softer.

Can It Be Used in Candles?

It can be tested for decorative candle and wax projects. The manufacturer states that it is compatible with oil-based systems and resistant to temperatures up to approximately 120 °C. However, an individual burn test is essential for any additive used in candles.

Can Glitter Be Applied Near the Wick?

We do not recommend this. It is better to use glitter as a subtle decorative surface element, away from the wick and active flame area.

Can It Be Used in Wax Melts?

Yes! Start with a small amount and assess colour and glitter stability in the specific wax you are using.

Can It Be Mixed Directly into Wax?

Yes, but Bioglitter® particles are not a pigment and do not dissolve in wax. They remain as separate glitter particles. The final result will depend on the wax viscosity, temperature, amount of glitter and particle settling.

Is It Suitable for Jesmonite?

It may be suitable, but because binders and water content vary, we recommend carrying out a small test first and using it primarily for surface decoration.

Is It Suitable for Epoxy Resin?

The manufacturer primarily positions DECO 60 SPARKLE for dry decorative applications and states that it is compatible with oil-based systems. We recommend testing it in a small batch with your specific epoxy resin before preparing a larger quantity.

Is It Suitable for Cosmetics?

No. This product belongs to the DECO range. The manufacturer explicitly states that DECO 60 SPARKLE is not intended for cosmetic use. For cosmetics, choose the separate Cosmetic Bioglitter® range.

Can It Be Used on the Face or Body?

No. This product is sold as a decorative material, not a cosmetic ingredient.

Can It Be Used for Food or Cake Decoration?

No. Sigmund Lindner states that Bioglitter® products are not intended for consumption or direct use in food.

Is It Suitable for Children's Crafts?

DECO 60 is designed for creative projects at home, in schools and in nurseries. The product is reported to have very low heavy metal content, well below the limits specified by EN 71, OEKO-TEX® and GOTS. Nevertheless, it is a craft material, not food or cosmetics, and children should use it under adult supervision.

Can It Be Used on Plants and in Floristry?

Yes. Floristry and plant arrangements are among the intended applications of DECO 60 Bioglitter®.

Can a Decorated Item Be Washed?

If glitter is attached to a surface, the final water resistance will depend primarily on the adhesive or sealer used. DECO 60 itself is not intended for prolonged immersion in water.

Does the Glitter Dissolve?

No. It does not dissolve like a colourant. Biodegradability means that, under suitable environmental conditions, the material is gradually broken down by microorganisms. This is not the same as dissolving instantly in water.

Why Is It Called “60”?

This is part of the manufacturer's DECO Bioglitter® product line name, not a percentage of glitter or a particle-size measurement.

Is This Original Bioglitter®?

Yes. The product is manufactured by Sigmund Lindner GmbH / SiLi in Germany. Bioglitter® is a registered trademark of the manufacturer.
