Bio-T (Bio-Transformation) bags - how to dispose
After use, please recycle these bags with other soft plastics. You can use our website tool to find your nearest bag collection point.
Please avoid using these bags to collect and dispose of food waste, as they will not biodegrade in a closed composting environment.
