The world's first certified, fully home compostable plastic bags. Roll of 18 bags. Wave top for easy tying. Suitable for commercial and domestic use. Other 'degradable' plastic bags on the market are polyethelene bags with a percentage of plant starch or additives. Degradable bags break down into pieces of plastic debris that do not compost. To avoid misleading claims and be sure that the bags you purchase will actually compost rapidly and safely, look for independent certification. Our bags are fully certified to Australian Standard AS 4736, European Standard EN 13432 and the US Standard ASTM D6400 to be 100% home compostable. They contain no polyethylene. Interesting info about these bags: Breaks down in a reasonable amount of time, leaves behind no toxic residue, and safely becomes an additive to soil — compared with 50 or more years for normal plastic bags to break down into smaller pieces; A better choice for rubbish, because normal plastic bags slow the natural process of the rubbish biodegrading; The bags 'breathe', reducing the weight of the by-product up to 25% in 5 days. Ideal for collecting food waste for composting as they reduce smells, stop mould growth and the waste dries out making it easier to compost or worm. Certified by the Australasian Bioplastics Association, AIB Vincotte (OK Compost), DIN Certco & BPI (USA) Please remember, these bags still need to be responsibly disposed off in your rubbish. Made of a material called Mater-Bi, which consists of corn starch, biodegradable and compostable polyester and vegetable oil.
