These Compostable Trash Bags are made from potato starch from non-GMO starch potatoes blended with a certified, fully compostable polymer. No plasticizers are added and they are completely polyethylene-free.
Starch is a mixture of a linear (amylose) and a branched (amylopectin) polymer of glucose. Amylopectin gives starch its structural integrity, so it helps make it stronger than bags made from corn starch.
The potato starch used to make these bags comes from starch potatoes, which are not grown as a food source but only for starch production. Therefore, there is no diversion from food supplies. In addition, to produce the same amount of starch from these potatoes as from corn requires 40% less land.
Perfect for collecting food scraps and for use with kitchen counter compost pails.
The bags are 100% certified compostable and should be composted at home, by a compost service, or in municipal or commercial compost facilities.
All If You Care products are carefully crafted to have the least environmental impact and lightest carbon footprint possible, while still delivering effective results.
