Biodegradable bags come in a large assortment for almost any need you have. Whether you are disposing of food or pet waste, diapers or yard materials, there are biodegradable bags for each use. Unlike most standard plastic bags made with polyethylene biodegradable bags are 100% compostable and safe for our environment. They are typically manufactured with starch based polymers from corn, potatoes or wheat, all renewable resources.
Did you know that millions of birds and animals are killed each year from becoming entangled or by ingesting plastic debris? Biodegradable alternatives help alleviate this and other problems by keeping our rivers, streams, forest and oceans clean. Some biodegradable pet waste bags are even designed to be disposed of down the toilet.
Most biodegradable bags meet ASTM D6400 Standard Specifications for Compostable Plastics. This standard insures that materials meeting these specifications will disintegrate and biodegrade quickly and safely in professionally managed municipal
composting facilities. Since most waste and garbage is disposed of in bags, doesn’t it make sense to use biodegradable products whenever possible? It’s just better when it’s biodegradable.
