Bio-Transformation packaging - how to dispose

To dispose of our biodegradable (Bio-T) bags, we recommend recycling them with other soft plastics at a bag collection point in major supermarkets.

Please avoid disposing of them with food waste or in home compost heaps, as they are not designed to biodegrade in closed environments.

For bags that meet the compostable packaging standard EN13432, please see our range of compostable packing bags.
