Sustainability
These compostable kitchen waste bags are sustainable because they are made from renewable, non-edible corn starch instead of conventional plastics derived from fossil fuels. Unlike traditional plastic bags that can take centuries to break down and often release harmful microplastics into the environment, these bags fully biodegrade within 8 to 12 weeks in both home and industrial composting settings, leaving no toxic residue behind. Their production uses fewer chemicals and reduces environmental pollution, while the packaging itself is made from recycled and recyclable materials, further minimizing waste. Choosing these bags helps reduce plastic pollution, supports a circular economy, and promotes eco-friendly waste management practices.

What are people saying about Compostable Kitchen Waste Bags?
How to use
Using these compostable kitchen waste bags is simple and convenient. Just place a bag inside your kitchen bin as you would with any regular liner, and fill it with your daily household waste, especially food scraps and organic materials. Once the bag is full, tie it securely and dispose of it in your home compost bin or an industrial composting facility if available. Be sure to keep the bag in a dry place before use, as it is made from plant-based materials that begin to break down with moisture.
With proper use, these bags will decompose naturally within 8 to 12 weeks, making your waste disposal routine more sustainable and environmentally friendly.
