BioBag Compostable Plastic Bin Liners 20 Litre

Mater-Bi is a bioplastic made from PBAT (polybutylene adipate terephthalate derived from coal), plant starch and additives.

BioBag is an environmentally sustainable alternative to regular, polyethylene plastic bags that are certified compostable and certified biodegradable and will break down anywhere oxygen and microorganisms exist.

Interesting info about these bags:

• Breaks down in a reasonable amount of time, leaves behind no toxic residue, and safely becomes an additive to soil — compared with 50 or more years for normal plastic bags to break down into smaller pieces;
• A better choice for rubbish, because normal plastic bags slow the natural process of the rubbish biodegrading;
• The bags ‘breathe’, reducing the weight of the by-product up to 25% in 5 days. Ideal for collecting food waste for composting as they reduce smells, stop mould growth and the waste dries out making it easier to compost or worm.
• Certified by the Australasian Bioplastics Association, AIB Vincotte (OK Compost), DIN Certco & BPI (USA)

Please remember, these bags still need to be responsibly disposed off in your rubbish.

Made of a material called Mater-Bi, which consists of corn starch, biodegradable and compostable polyester and vegetable oil.
