Plastics are a problem. What’s the solution?
Bags made out of plastic, like grocery bags, have been used everyday for years. The plastic used in these bags is bio-inert. This means it does not react to biological tissues, or it do not break down easily. Plastic will eventually disintegrate, but not fast enough to keep up with the amount we use.
EcoSafe 6400 products are 100% compostable. EcoSafe 6400 trash can liners are made with the environment in mind. Using co-polyester and corn starch, the trash can liners are bio-degradable. Naturally occurring, co-polyester allows EcoSafe bags to degrade faster than bags made from other materials.
Compostable Bags For Home, Commercial and Institutional Use
EcoSafe 6400™ Compostable Plastic Trash Bags are environmentally safe and contain no heavy metals. The biological process of degradation returns the “organic carbon” in the material back to the natural bio-cycle as a food source for microorganisms.
All EcoSafe 6400 Compostable bags meet the requirements of ASTM D6400 and carry the United States Composting Council/ Biodegradable Products Institute certification logo.
EcoSafe designs their trash can liners to fit easily into the container and forms to the shape. This allows for the weight to be distributed evenly to avoid tearing the bag. EcoSafe maximizes the capacity and cuts down on leaks.
