BioBag®Food Waste/Storage Bag~Fits Kitchen Compost Pail

BioBag Kitchen Bags

BioBag kitchen waste bags are primarily used for the collection of food scraps and other biodegradable waste for home or community composting.

Our popular BioBag 3 gallon size is designed to fit most kitchen countertop composting pails. Using BioBags takes the mess out of the messiest job, cleaning out the bucket! BioBags can also help reduce odor and bacterial build-up during food scrap collection.

Our 3 gallon food waste bags are also great for refrigerated food storage. One feature of the BioBag is that it “breathes” without leaking. This unique benefit allows heat and moisture to evaporate, which keeps food “fresher” longer. Try BioBags for storing your fruits and vegetables. Store your vegetables to maintain freshness, and then use the same bag to line your composting pail. We call it “use and use again”. Our 3 gallon size can also be used for smaller bathroom waste cans.

This bag can be used along with the ECOBAGS produce bags which I have listed.

Listed below facts and data regarding BioBag products:

BioBag products are certified by the Biodegradable Products Institute to meet the ASTM D6400 specification. The BPI logo is shown at the bottom of this page. Always look for the logo to assure the products you buy are truly biodegradable and compostable.

BioBag products meet the new California law, SB 1749, for biodegradable and compostable product claims.

BioBags are certified GMO Free. Furthermore, we only source corn from countries that do not allow GMO testing.

No polyethylene is used in the production of BioBags.

BioBags are DEN certified for restricted use of metals in our soy-based inks and dyes.

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 “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.

Landfill Placement of BioBags:

BioBags are designed to be composted and returned naturally back to the earth. If BioBags are placed in an “open” or “turned” landfill they will decompose at a rate similar to other biodegradable materials in the same setting. If BioBags are placed in an anaerobic (air-locked) landfill and deprived of oxygen and the existence of the micro-organisms that “eat” naturally biodegradable materials, their ability to decompose will be severely restricted. This is true of all biodegradable materials placed in this setting, including paper, yard waste and food waste.

As a consumer, you should be quite suspicious of any manufacturer making claims that their products will biodegrade quickly in an air-locked landfill.
