Product Information

Full details

These 5L compostable caddy liners from All-Green are designed for eco-conscious households looking for a convenient way to manage kitchen waste. Their key benefit is being fully compostable and biodegradable, breaking down harmlessly in home compost heaps. A potential caveat is that paper bags may not always form a perfect fit in every caddy, requiring slight adjustment. The liners are made from 1-ply, 70 gsm waterproof wet-strengthened paper, ensuring durability even with wet contents, and are certified compostable to EN13432.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Are these liners truly compostable at home?

Yes, these liners are certified compostable and biodegradable to EN13432 standards, meaning they are designed to break down effectively in a home compost environment.

What is the size of these liners?

The bag size is for 3/5 Litre caddies, with measurements of 290mm x 200mm x 150mm.

Can I use these if my local authority doesn't collect compostable waste?

While approved by many authorities, their primary benefit is for home composting. They will break down in your home compost heap regardless of collection services.

Will the wet-strengthened paper prevent leaks?

The 70 gsm wet-strengthened paper is designed to hold wet contents without immediate failure, but like any paper product, prolonged exposure to very high moisture or very heavy contents could still lead to issues. They are best used for daily collection and transfer to compost.

How should I store the liners?

Store the liners in a cool, dark, and dry place, away from any moisture to maintain their integrity.

What is the difference between these and cornstarch bags?

These are made from paper, offering a different material composition than cornstarch bags. Both are designed to be compostable, but paper liners can be a good alternative if you prefer not to use plastics or bioplastics derived from corn.

Troubleshooting

Liner tears when holding wet waste

Ensure you are using the correct size liner and avoid overloading it with excessively wet or heavy items. The wet-strength paper is designed for typical moisture levels, but extreme saturation may challenge its limits.

Liner does not fit caddy well

Gently push and shape the paper liner against the inside walls of the caddy. The design allows for some flexibility. Ensure you are rolling down the top edges over the caddy rim.

Liners degrade too quickly before use

Check storage conditions. Ensure liners are kept in a cool, dark, dry place away from any humidity or moisture sources.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Environmentally friendly alternative to plastic liners.
  • Fully compostable and biodegradable in home compost systems.
  • Durable construction prevents leaks with wet food waste.
  • Designed for easy removal from compost caddies.
  • Certified to EN13432 standards.

Cons

  • May require slight adjustment to fit some caddies perfectly.
  • Paper construction means they are not as robust as plastic alternatives for very heavy or sharp waste.
  • Optimal decomposition requires an active, well-maintained compost heap.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Unfold the liner and place it inside your kitchen compost caddy. Roll the top edges of the liner down over the rim of the caddy to secure it and create a neat fit. Adjust the liner to conform to the shape of your caddy.

Compatibility: These liners are designed for most small kitchen compost caddies with a 3/5 Litre capacity. While they aim for a universal fit, minor adjustments may be needed for specific caddy designs.

Care: Store unused liners in a cool, dark, and dry place. Keep them away from sources of moisture to prevent premature degradation. Ensure your compost caddy itself is kept clean between uses.
