compostable kitchen trash bags
Compostable kitchen trash bags represent an eco-conscious solution for modern waste management, offering a sustainable alternative to traditional plastic bags. These innovative bags are crafted from plant-based materials, primarily cornstarch and other renewable resources, making them completely biodegradable in commercial composting facilities. The bags feature robust construction with a thickness of 0.71 mils, ensuring they can withstand daily kitchen waste without tearing or leaking. They typically come in various sizes, with the most popular being 13 gallons, perfectly fitting standard kitchen trash bins. The bags are certified to meet ASTM D6400 standards for compostability, breaking down into natural elements within 180 days in proper composting conditions. Each bag incorporates star-sealed bottoms for enhanced durability and features easy-tie handles for convenient closure and removal. The material used maintains its integrity when holding wet waste while remaining permeable enough to allow proper decomposition in composting environments. These bags are designed to maintain freshness with natural odor-blocking properties and include clear indicators for proper disposal methods. The technology behind these bags ensures they retain their strength during use but begin decomposition once exposed to specific environmental conditions in commercial composting facilities.
