When packaging is termed 'biodegradable' this claim means nothing as there are no certifications to support it. Why no certifications? Because technically, everything is biodegradable, even plastic will break down in nature over time ... it becomes brittle and fragments which means that it meets the definition of biodegradable. There is a general assumption that if a material is biodegradable, that it is safe, but that's not necessarily true. Compostability in the other hand can be determined by rigorous testing and certifications.

Sometimes! Most poly bags are made from polyethylene (PE) which is a traditional plastic. These compostable bags are made from a bioplastic which is engineered to safely biodegrade in a home composting environment.

Poly bags are called poly bags because they are traditionally made from polyethylene (PE). These home compostable ones however are not made from PE, they are partly made from plants and PBAT.

Poly bags are most commonly used to protect garments, but these bags are suitable for covering all sorts of goods; leather goods, homewares, electronics, appliances - the list is endless. They are useful because they help prevent the contents inside from being damaged as they are transported from the factory or manufacturer, to the retailer and sometimes all the way to the end customer.
