BioBag
Did you know that when organic waste is left in plastic inside the landfill, it’s unable to decompose properly and generates methane, a greenhouse gas 25 times more potent than carbon dioxide? Even worse, hundreds of years later, when the plastic-bag around your organic waste does break down, it leaves behind tons of nasty microplastics, further polluting our waterways and ecosystems. Make the switch from trashy plastic bags to a compostable alternative with BioBag!
Made from GMO-Free crops, each BioBag product helps you reduce your use of single use, disposable plastics. From pet waste bags, to food storage solutions, to countertop compost bags, BioBag has a (compostable) solution.

Eric –
Can a certain size/spec biobag be multi-purpose … As we plan to use these on our hands while shopping during the covid-19 pandemic?

Hi, Eric! We’re so happy to hear you’re looking for ways to protect yourself during this COVID-19 pandemic, and we appreciate your desire for multi-use products! BioBag is made of Mater-Bi, a bioplastic derived from the starches of plants, vegetable oils, and compostable polymers, so it is built for composting, not protection from germs or viruses. Our recommendation continues to follow the CDC’s protection guidelines- thorough hand washing (20-30 seconds), not touching your face, using a sanitizer with at least 60% alcohol, and reducing exposure to large groups. If you’re looking for ways to protect your hands while out and about still, you could also try these natural latex cleaning gloves! We hope this helps 🙂

These bags for doggies are excellent, sturdy and not too large. Perfect for picking up your dog’s droppings. Love them! I highly recommend them and other sustainable options.

We have had dogs for many many years and I have spent all that time in search of a poo bag that is compostible but also strong enough and easy to open. By far the best of any we have used before!

We use these when scooping kitty litter, since we have cats, not dogs. They are a little small to put in the scoop able litter with the scoop, but it works OK. And we are pleased to not be putting it in plastic bags for disposal.

Given that the bag is compostable but dog’s poop contains harmful bacteria to waterways and humans. Do you have any thoughts on this?

Hi there! This is a very important point, thank you for bringing it up! While these bags are compostable, they should only end up in compost bins designated for pet waste and pet waste only. If this isn’t an option, then to the trash they go! These bags offer an excellent plastic-free alternative to traditional doggy bags and help us move away from petroleum-based products and towards more renewable sources!

This is one worry to cross off your list!
In the quest for a single-use plastic purge from my life, this product gives me the peace of mind to know that when I toss it in my garbage bin, it will biodegrade.
