EN13432 is the European standard for compostable materials. It means these bags are certified to break down under industrial composting conditions, turning into compost, water, and CO2 without leaving harmful residues.
This product contains a total of 20 bags, supplied as two rolls, with 10 bags per roll.
These bags are specifically designed for compostable organic waste like garden and food scraps. They are not intended for general non-compostable household waste.
The star-sealed base is a design feature where the bottom of the bag is gathered and sealed in a way that increases its strength and prevents leaks, especially when carrying heavy or wet contents.
Unused bags should be stored in a cool, dark, dry place, away from direct sunlight, heat, or steam, and used within 18 months of purchase.
While certified to EN13432 (industrial composting standard), their compostable nature means they are generally suitable for home composting, depending on your home composting system's efficiency. Check with your local authority if they accept these bags for kerbside collections.
Ensure you are not overfilling the bag beyond its intended capacity for its contents. Double-check that the contents are not sharp or jagged, which can puncture the material. Confirm the bag is within the 18-month usage window and has been stored correctly.
The bag may have been exposed to heat, light, or moisture during storage. Check the purchase date; if it's over 18 months old, it may have degraded. Store new bags in a cool, dark, dry location.
Measure your bin's dimensions and compare them against the bag's size (162cm rim x 100cm length approx.). Adjust how you line the bin, ensuring enough material is folded over the rim and spread across the base for a secure fit.
Setup:
These bags are ready to use straight from the roll. If using within a bin, measure your bin's dimensions (width, depth, and height) and compare them to the bag's specifications (162cm rim x 100cm length approx.) to ensure a proper fit. Allow enough length to fold the bag over the top rim and spread it across the base of the bin.
Compatibility:
The bags are certified to EN13432 and often accepted by local authorities for food waste composting schemes. They are designed for organic waste, including garden and kitchen scraps. They are *not* suitable for non-organic materials or building waste.
Care & Storage:
To ensure longevity and prevent premature degradation, store the compostable liners in a cool, dark, and dry place. Keep them away from direct sunlight, heat sources, and steam. It is crucial to use all bags within 18 months of purchase. Rotating stock, using older bags first, is recommended.
