Compostable Trash Bags are made from potato starch from non-GMO starch potatoes blended with a certified, fully compostable polymer. No plasticizers are added. Potato starch has a higher percentage of amylopectin than either corn or wheat starch. Amylopectin gives starch its structural integrity, making the bags stronger. Starch potatoes are not grown as a food source, but only for starch production. Producing the same amount of starch from these potatoes as from corn requires 40% less land. 80 million tons of waste can be turned into compost, including food scraps, yard trimmings and non-recyclable paper. Diverting food scraps and yard trimmings from landfill to compost facilities contributes significantly to preserving our planet and natural resources.
If You Care Compostable Trash Bags are available in two sizes: Food Waste 3 gallon and Tall Kitchen 13 gallon.
If You Care Compostable Trash Bags are certified compostable for home.
