Summary
Compostable bags made from plant materials are the most environmentally friendly alternative to traditional plastic bags. These biodegradable bags break down naturally without leaving harmful residues and are certified for industrial and home composting. Learn about the benefits of compostable bags and their role in a zero-waste lifestyle. Compare compostable bags to recyclable, reusable, and degradable bags to find the best solution for organic waste disposal and sustainable living.
The Global Crisis of Plastic Pollution
Plastic bags are widely used due to their low cost and durability, but they also bring serious environmental problems. Traditional plastic bags are made from non-renewable resources, take hundreds of years to decompose, and produce microplastics that pollute the food chain. Only 5% of plastic waste is effectively recycled. The production and incineration of plastic bags not only increases greenhouse gas emissions, but also releases toxic substances, further polluting the air and soil.
Our compostable bags provide a sustainable alternative that effectively solves these pressing issues.
Why Are Compostable Bags the Best Solution?
Compostable bags, such as those offered by Torise Biomaterials, are an ideal alternative to traditional plastic bags. Made from renewable plant materials such as starch, PLA and PBAT, our bags fully decompose in industrial compost within 6 months and in home compost within 12 months, leaving no trace of microplastics.During the composting process, the bags break down into water, CO2 and biomass, which can be used as organic fertilizer.
Our compostable bags are certified to global standards such as EN13432, OK Compost, OK Compost HOME, ASTM D6400, etc., ensuring safe and environmentally friendly disposal.
Eco-Friendly Bags Comparison
Recyclable bags
Ordinary plastic bags can be recycled in theory, the low cost, complex and energy-intensive recycling process makes it difficult to recycle them. Similarly, recyclable bags often require complex and energy-intensive processing, and some materials are difficult to fully recycle or degrade.
Reusable bags
Although cotton and linen bags have higher carbon emissions during the production process, they have a long service life. After 50 to 100 uses, the carbon emissions per use will drop significantly.
Degradable bags
FALSE environmental solutions!
Beware of uncertified "biodegradable" plastic bags - they may contain plastics mixed with heavy metals or starch. These plastics break down into harmful microplastics that pollute water and soil.
Compostable bags
Among the many eco-friendly options, compostable bags are an excellent choice. They combine the convenience of traditional plastic bags while providing a more sustainable solution. These bags decompose into water, carbon dioxide and biomass.
