Primode Bags

These bags are 100% compostable and BPI-certified. This means they meet strict standards for breaking down in commercial composting facilities, unlike standard biodegradable plastics which may simply fragment into microplastics.

Yes, these bags are constructed with a 0.87 mil thickness, making them notably tougher and more resistant to tears than many thinner compostable alternatives. While they are durable, it is still best practice to avoid overstuffing them with sharp or excessively heavy items.

Yes, they are designed with a standard 13-gallon capacity, making them a direct fit for most standard kitchen waste bins. Because they are compostable, they may have a slightly different feel than traditional plastic, but they will accommodate standard bin dimensions.

To maintain their integrity, store these bags in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and humidity. When stored properly, they will remain durable for their intended shelf life; they are designed to break down only when exposed to the specific conditions found in a composting environment.

While you technically can use them for regular trash, they are engineered specifically to break down in composting environments. If you use them for non-compostable waste, they will end up in a landfill where they may not decompose as intended.
