Bespoke printing? Open top, stepped flap foreasy opening? Stitched or glued bottomDegradableNot to be confused withbiodegradable compostablebags, which are made frombio-plastic, our degradable refuse sacks aremade by adding a ‘biodegradable’ additive to ourstandard polyethylene film bags - either recycled,virgin, or a blend of both. A combination of oxygen,heat, and micro-organisms, or UV light, causes areaction with the additive, which begins the processof fragmentation through oxo-degradation(oxidisation of the active ingredient) or photo-degradation (exposure to UV light).Bags made from degradable plastics may degrade ina landfill site, but they have not yet been proven tomeet the standards required for composting, sincethey cannot show complete biodegradation within thetimescale required. Degradable bags are therefore noteligible to meet the composting standard EN13432.Available in a range of bespoke size, colour, printand packaging options.Ecopond® compostable bags A proven range ofbiodegradable bags for thecollection of garden andkitchen waste, manufacturedfrom starch or lactide acid-based derivatives of plant sources.Ecopond® compostable bags,for which Cromwell Polytheneholds the distribution rightsamong local authorities and the waste managementsector in England and Wales, meet the stringentrequirements of the European composting standardEN13432, requiring more than 90% of the plasticmass to be converted into biomass, CO2 and water,without harmful residue.
