Compostable Carry Bags

Compostable Carry Bags

Compostable Carry Bags are eco-friendly alternatives to traditional plastic bags. They're designed to break down naturally into non-toxic components, helping reduce pollution and landfill waste. Here’s a quick overview:

Features

● Made from plant-based materials like cornstarch, PLA (polylactic acid), or PBAT. ● Break down in composting conditions within 90-180 days (industrial composting is faster). ● Leave no toxic residue, turning into water, CO₂, and biomass.

Benefits :

• Environmentally safe::
  Help reduce plastic pollution.
• Renewable sources::
  ○ Unlike fossil-fuel-based plastics.
Compliant with composting standards like ASTM D6400 or EN 13432.
• Things to Watch Out For::
  ○ Not all “biodegradable” bags are compostable — check for certification. ○ May require specific composting conditions (temperature, humidity, microbes). ○ Shorter shelf life than traditional plastic bags.
• Popular Uses::
  ○ Grocery and produce bags ○ Retail packaging ○ Waste collection (esp. organic/green waste)
