Frequently asked questions
What are your compostable bags made of?
Our compostable bags, Tape, and twine are made from premium Mater-Bi™ bioplastic resin, a biodegradable and compostable plant-based material that breaks down naturally without leaving harmful residues.
Are your products certified compostable?
Yes, our bags meet international compostability standards, including EN13432 and ASTM D6400, ensuring they break down completely in industrial composting conditions.
How do your products benefit the environment?
Our bags reduce plastic pollution by decomposing into natural biomass, support healthy soil by avoiding toxic chemicals, and lower carbon footprint compared to conventional plastics.
Can I compost these bags, twine, and tapes at home?
Absolutely! Our bags are fully home compostable and will break down naturally in a typical home compost setup. In addition, our agricultural twine and tapes are soil-rated, meaning they actively benefit soil health as they degrade, enriching the earth without leaving harmful residues.
How long will the bags last if stored properly?
When stored in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and moisture, our compostable bags maintain their quality for up to one year. Proper storage is key to preserving their durability and compostable properties.
Will these bags work for my agricultural needs?
Definitely. Our agricultural tapes and bags help maintain soil health by reducing plastic residue, supporting weed control, moisture retention, and minimizing chemical contamination in farmland.
Are your bags water-resistant and durable?
Yes, despite being compostable, our bags are resilient enough for everyday use, handling wet and dry waste effectively without tearing.
