Materials
Materials
• Made from completely biodegradable and compostable materials; corn starch, PLA (synthesised from corn) and PBAT (Polybutyrate Adipate Terephthalate).
• This combination of materials is non-toxic and contains no Phthalate or Bisphenol A (BPA).
• Certified free of GMO material.
• While these materials are biodegradable and compostable, they are not 100% renewable as the PBAT component is derived from petroleum-based materials. We are limited at the moment by the availability of suitable, sustainable raw materials that deliver the barrier and performance properties we need but are always testing resins made from an even greater amount of plant-based material – exciting times!
Production
Production
• Production uses approx. 30% renewable energy.
End-of-Use
End-of-Use
• Here for a good time, not a long time, these poly bags will biodegrade in a home compost in 3-6 months and even quicker in a commercial composting facility.
• Safe for worms, worm farms and bokashi bins.
• Any remaining self-seal strips and labels (unless specified as compostable) should be removed before composting.
