On the difference from our recycled bags

This is not the same as our recycled-plastic bags, which still contain plastic, just reused. Like any compostable bag it has a shelf life — the makers state 2 years from manufacture, after which it may not perform as reliably.

Why we chose it

This is the only bag in the range that's genuinely plastic-free rather than recycled plastic, which matters if avoiding new plastic entirely is the actual goal. It handles like a normal bag, so nobody has to compromise to use it.

Full description

"Recycled" and "plastic-free" get used interchangeably in this aisle and they are not the same claim — one is still plastic, just reused; the other contains no plastic at all. This pack is the second kind.

It's made from compostable vegetable extracts rather than any plastic, in a pack of 48 bags each measuring 18x21cm. It looks and handles like an ordinary poop bag, but the material behind it is different.

On the difference from our recycled bags. This is not the same as our recycled-plastic bags, which still contain plastic, just reused. Like any compostable bag it has a shelf life — the makers state 2 years from manufacture, after which it may not perform as reliably.

Who it's for: owners actively trying to avoid new plastic altogether, not just reduce it, and happy to use the pack within its stated shelf life.
