These compostable bin liners are certified home compostable to Australian Standards (AS5810) and commercially compostable to Australian Standards (AS4736).
Bags are accepted wherever there are municipal organic waste collection services.
Bioplastics have a 6-month shelf life from purchase and must be stored out of direct sun and below 35 Degrees Celsius.
Bioplastic bags with handles are banned as carry bags in QLD, VIC, NSW & WA. They are accepted if not used to carry goods (for eg. as bin liners or dog waste bags).
