Even pointed objects can penetrate the bag without the bags tearing. They are provided with the seedling logo and are therefore compostable and can go in the compost heap, so these bags have a dual function, you first do your shopping with them and then you collect GFT waste in them and take it to the GFT bin. These bags are based on corn starch, fully compostable and have a load capacity of up to 4 kg. This makes them particularly suitable for larger purchases. Many organic shops, farm shops, health food stores, supermarkets, and market stalls already know the benefits of shopping bags and offer them in their stores for takeaway and retail. The bags are based on European corn starch, the corn of which comes from guaranteed GMO-free cultivation. Mater Bi is processed into bags in Germany under high quality standards. The Compostella bags remain waterproof for a period of time, making them ideal for the separate collection of organic kitchen waste before they, along with their contents, are disposed of in the green or brown bin, and even in the garden compost. The bags decompose within approximately 10-14 days in an industrial composting facility (green or brown bin). In garden compost, it takes longer, depending on the weather and season, but even here, under good conditions, the bags typically disappear within about 3 months.
