About this product

Recycled & Compostable Bags

Sustainable packaging has an honesty problem, and most of it happens at the print stage. A bag made of ordinary virgin kraft with a leaf icon and the word eco on it is not a recycled bag, and increasingly customers and regulators both know that.

So we work from certified stock and we print the certification, not a mood. FSC recycled kraft, papers with a stated post-consumer waste percentage, and compostable film certified to the recognised standards. Whatever the bag actually is, that is what goes on it.

Inks are water-based or soy on all paper stock, which keeps the bag recyclable in ordinary streams rather than requiring special handling. On compostable film we print with compliant inks so the whole item breaks down as certified rather than leaving a printed skin behind.

Grocers, refill shops, farmers markets, councils and brands with a public commitment order these. Send your artwork and quantity for a free mockup and quote on custom recycled and compostable bags today.

FAQ

Recycled & Compostable Bags: quick answers

What is the minimum order for recycled and compostable bags?

Minimum order is just 12 — with bulk pricing tiers as quantities grow.

How fast will my order arrive?

Your free mockup lands within 24 hours and the finished order ships in about 2 weeks — express turnaround is available for tight dates.

What is the difference between compostable and biodegradable?

Compostable is a certified standard with a defined timeframe and conditions. Biodegradable is an unregulated word that technically describes almost anything eventually. We only supply and print the certified claim.

Can I put a recycling symbol on any bag?

Only if it is accurate for the stock and the market you are selling in. We will tell you which marks your chosen material actually qualifies for rather than printing whatever you send us, because an unsupportable claim is your risk, not ours.
