Our BioPlastic Bags are made from Ecopond bioplastic. These 8L bioplastic checkout bags are certified home compostable to European standards and compostable to ASA736-2006 Australian standards. These compostable bags are an environmentally friendly alternative to plastic checkout bags. Bioplastic bags with handles are banned as carry bags in QLD, VIC, NSW & WA. They are accepted if not used to carry goods (for eg. as bin liners or dog waste bags).
Our bioplastic rubbish bags are made from a synthetic biodegradable bioplastic combined with plant-starch – Ecopond.
These compostable bin liners are certified home compostable to Australian Standards (AS5810) and commercially compostable to Australian Standards (AS4736). That means these compostable bin bags are accepted wherever there are municipal organic waste collection services. If the trash bags do end up in the environment, they will biodegrade more rapidly than conventional plastic bags.
