Home Compostable Bioplastic Bags Made From Plants




Plastic pollution is a significant issue, with single-use plastic bags playing a major role. Our check-out carry bags offer a practical solution for those times when lightweight bags are necessary. Made from Ecopond—a synthetic bioplastic combined with plant starch—these bags are certified home compostable (AS5810) and industrially compostable (AS4736) to Australian standards. They’re perfect for holding food after checkout in the store and can even be used to collect organic waste like food scraps and pet waste without leaving harmful residues behind.
When purchasing compostable bags, look for the seedling logo, which signifies that the product is certified compostable. By choosing BioPak check-out bags, you're opting for a practical product that meets your needs while helping to reduce plastic waste. These bags are a great alternative to traditional grocery and shopping bags, allowing for easy disposal and better waste management. Make the switch today and contribute to a cleaner future!
