For the collection of leaves and other biodegradable yard debris BioBag is the world's largest selling brand of certified biodegradable and compostable bags made from the material, Mater-Bi. No polyethylene is used in the production of this product. BioBags are GMO free, certified for use in organic agriculture and CEN certified for restricted use of metals in our soy-based inks and dyes. BioBags are shelf stable, just like paper towels, yet biodegrade quickly when exposed to nature's elements and micro-organisms, leaving no harmful residues behind.
Please look for the BPI compostable logo to assure the products you buy are truly biodegradable and compostable. We thank you for helping reduce the amount of polyethylene-based bags that litter our streets, backwoods and waterways.
The Ten Second Plastic Bag Lesson Regular polyethylene-based plastic bags can take well over 100 years to degrade and are not compostable. Less than 2% of all plastic bags ever get recycled. Plastic bags litter our streets, backwoods and waterways. Studies indicate that 100,000 marine animals and 2 million birds die each year from ingesting or being caught up in plastic debris. Some manufacturers are blending additives to polyethylene to produce "degradable" bags. Unfortunately, this process fragments the bags into pieces of plastic debris that do not meet the ASTM D6400-99 standard for biodegradable and compostable plastic. These pieces cause serious harm when mistaken by animals and birds for food. BioBag products use no polyethylene in the production process. We are fully certified by the Biodegradable Products Institute to be 100% biodegradable and 100% compostable. Please be sure the biodegradable products you buy are properly certified.
Nature knows the difference.
