How to store this clear mini biodegradable bag

Biodegradable bags should be stored at 17-23°C in a dry place, out of direct sunlight. Failure to do this may reduce their 12-month shelf life.

How to dispose of biodegradable (Bio-T) packaging

If you wish to dispose of these Bio-T bags after use (and reuse), we advise that they are recycled. If your local council does not collect soft plastics for recycling, we recommend you take them to your local bag collection point along with your traditional carrier bags.

They are designed to biodegrade if they escape waste streams and end up in the natural environment, but will *not* biodegrade if disposed of with your food waste, or in a home compost environment.

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