Why are paper bags a good environmental choice?
- 100% renewable, compostable and recyclable
- Re-usable at home, or for transporting goods
- Self-standing allowing items to be neatly stacked into the bag
- Very strong and can hold up to 14kg in weight
- Unlike degradable plastic bags, paper bags break down completely. A degradable plastic bag only breaks down into smaller fragments
- Easily placed into home recycling bins
- Comfortable handles that do not cut into your hands
- High quality custom printing displayed on large flat sides for superior brand presentation
Paper is the Solution
Plastic bag bans or levies have been introduced in numerous countries worldwide over the past several years. From the United Kingdom to Australia and the Philippines, everyone is introducing laws to minimise the impact that plastic bags have on our natural environment. If not disposed of properly plastic bags can pollute waterways, clog sewers and have even been found in oceans affecting the habitat of marine animals and contributing to plastic waste gyres such as the Great Pacific Garbage Patch.
