These 25L green compost bags are designed for households looking to easily manage their kerbside compost caddy waste. The key benefit is maintaining a clean caddy with fully compostable and biodegradable liners. A caveat to consider is their 18-month shelf life and the need to check compatibility with specific caddy dimensions. Key features include their certified compostability, star-sealed base for durability, and suitability for most local authority food waste schemes.

These bags are designed for most 23/25 litre kerbside compost caddies. However, it's recommended to check the bag dimensions (approx. 116cm rim x 60cm length) against your specific caddy to ensure a proper fit.
EN13432 is the European standard for compostable materials. It ensures that the bags are fully biodegradable and will break down in industrial composting facilities, leaving no toxic residue.
Unused bags should be stored correctly (cool, dark, dry) and used within 18 months of purchase to maintain their compostable qualities.
These bags are specifically designed for food waste intended for composting. While they are biodegradable, using them for general waste may not align with local waste management practices.
The 'star-sealed' base is a design feature where the bottom of the bag is gathered and sealed in a star pattern. This provides extra strength and durability to prevent leaks when the bag is full.
Unused bags should be stored in a cool, dark, dry place, away from direct sunlight, heat, and steam to prevent premature degradation.
Yes, the bags are also suitable for use in smaller indoor kitchen bins in addition to outdoor kerbside compost caddies.
Ensure bags are stored in a cool, dark, dry place, away from heat and sunlight. Check if bags are older than 18 months from purchase.
Verify the dimensions of your caddy against the bag size (approx. 116cm rim x 60cm length). You may need to adjust how the bag is placed or confirm compatibility.
Ensure the 'star-sealed' base is intact and that the bag is not overfilled beyond its capacity. For very wet waste, consider double-bagging or ensuring the waste is not excessively moist.
Confirm that your local authority accepts compostable bags certified to EN13432 and displaying the seedling logo. Check their specific guidelines for food waste recycling.
Compatibility: These 25-litre bags are designed to fit most standard outdoor kerbside compost caddies. It is crucial to measure your specific caddy's dimensions (rim diameter and depth) and compare them with the bag's approximate measurements (116cm rim x 60cm length). Ensure there is enough bag length to fold over the caddy's rim and spread across the base for a secure fit.
Usage: Line your compost caddy with one bag, ensuring it fits snugly. Fill with food waste as usual. Once full, gather the top of the bag, tie securely, and place it into your kerbside caddy for collection. Always try to use older bags first.
Care & Storage: Store unused bags in a cool, dark, and dry location away from direct sunlight, heat sources, or steam. Proper storage is essential to maintain the integrity and compostability of the bags. Use all bags within 18 months of the purchase date to ensure optimal performance.
