Is It Safe to Compost Paper Bags? A Guide to Eco-Friendly Waste Solutions
Paper bags is eco-friendly, but not all are safe for compost. Uncoated grocery bags decompose well, while plastic-coated or heavily inked ones should be avoided. Fast food and shipping bags often have grease or synthetic layers—remove contaminants before composting. Torise’s certified compostable paper bags break down fully within 90–180 days, leaving no waste. For best results, shred bags, balance compost materials, and maintain moisture. Choose plastic-free options for a greener future.
