BioBag Composting Bag with Handles

Two hands holding soil

Landfill Diversion

Our composting bags make it easier to lower your carbon footprint by diverting waste away from landfills and reducing methane emissions! We want to pave the way for the future of alternative plastic, to create a tomorrow with clean oceans and a happy, healthy Earth.

Community

BioBag strengthens communities by making it possible for those unable to compost on their own to gather their scraps and support local composting initiatives. Small operations continue to pave the way where infrastructure is lacking or inaccessible.

Soil Rejuvenation

Compost is decomposed organic matter and it’s the best thing you can do to improve the health of garden soil. Composting enriches the soil, helping it retain moisture which keeps pests at bay and reduces the need for chemical fertilizers.

Product Description

Did you know that 30% of what we throw out is compostable? Composting is the key to reducing greenhouse gas emissions and replenishing our soils, reducing warming effects on the climate. BioBag Food Scraps bags are ideally used for the collection of food scraps and other kitchen waste for home, municipal and community composting. Our popular BioBag 3 Gallon Size is designed to fit most kitchen countertop composting pails. BioBags aren't meant to last forever but are durable and strong enough for the conventional collection of food waste and other compostable items. BioBags breathe naturally, allowing moisture to escape and evaporate. This process allows food waste to dry, thus reducing mold and bacteria, which causes odor. When BioBags are used with a ventilated bin, you'll have the ultimate system for food waste collection. BioBag is the leading supplier of compostable bags across the globe however, BioBag isn’t a large PE plastic bag company that now conveniently dabbles in the new world of compostable bags. We are a small company of dedicated employees, who are fully committed to ONLY producing Certified compostable bags and films. It’s All We Do! This product complies with California Law (SB 1972) and other state and local laws regarding compostable labeled products. BioBags are Biodegradable Products Institute  certified to meet the ASTM D6400 specification. Biodegradable Products Institute  Certification #891053. The ASTM D6400 is the North American equivalent of the European EN 13432. Both specifications require that compostable products completely decompose in a composting setting in a specific time frame, leaving no harmful residues behind. For best results: Use within one year of purchase; Store in a cool, dry place away from excessive heat. Try the fridge or freezer; Change out your used BioBag every 3-5 days; condensation may form when used in a closed container. If not a high usage consumer, please see our 100ct product to better fit your needs. Non-GMO Project Verified - BioBag Products met strict criteria for GMO avoidance to achieve this verification. BioBags are Manufactured in the USA with resin sourced from Italy. Certified compostable wording and the Biodegradable Products Institute (Biodegradable Products Institute ) logo are visibly printed on each bag. Approved for use in green & brown cart communities that accept compostable plastics.
