Yes, our bag is oxo-biodegradable, which means it will break down under certain conditions. We launched our new paper bags in September 2021 and these will fully replace our plastic bags once we run out of the current stocks of plastic bags. Cheese & meat wrap are plastic free and fully recyclable.
Our paper bag is:
- A totally chlorine free paper bag with twisted paper handles
- Printed using 100% non-toxic water-based inks
- FSC-certified paper
- 20% recycled content
- 100% recyclable in kerbside paper waste collection
- Clearly labelled with recycling messaging
