BioBags are 100% biodegradable and 100% compostable bags made from the material Mater-Bi. All of our products contain GMO free starch, biodegradable polymer and other renewable resources. BioBag products meet ASTM D6400 specifications and California SB 1749 requirements. We will never compromise our earth or our standards.
BioBag Facts:
• No polyethylene is used in the production process.
• BioBags are shelf stable, just like paper plates or paper towels. There are no chemical additives to enhance decomposition. The bags biodegrade naturally when expose to the earth’s elements and micro-organisms in the soil.
• BioBags use soy-based inks and dyes.
• BioBags “breathe”, which allows heat and moisture to escape or evaporate. This feature reduces bacterial build-up of collected waste, thus reducing odor.
• BioBags will decompose in a controlled composting environment in 10-45 days, leaving no harmful residues behind.
• BioBags will decompose in a natural setting at an extended rate comparable to other naturally biodegradable materials, such as paper, leaves and food waste.
• BioBags will biodegrade in both fresh and salt water. Australian studies suggest decomposition occurs between 8-14 months. We do not support placing any material in our oceans, lakes or waterways.
