Compostable Garment Bags provide the fashion and apparel industry with a sustainable solution to single-use product packaging.
Currently, millions, if not billions, of non-compostable poly bags are produced each year. These environmentally harmful single-use plastics are used to individually package clothing and accessories boxed in warehouses or when shipped out from the manufacturer.
After use, this unnecessary plastic ends up in landfill, where it will sit for hundreds of years.
Because We Care’s zero-waste Compostable Garment Bags provide retailers and small businesses with a viable ecological alternative to conventional plastic pollution. Robust while in use, they help corporations reduce their dependence on single-use plastic t-shirt bags and minimise the environmental footprint of their business.
Plant-based and non-toxic, they are sustainably made from corn starch, have generous dimensions and maintain all the benefits of a plastic poly bag, without compromising the earth.
An adhesive sealing strip on the back of the package keeps items protected and supports safe transportation for a wide range of products.
After use, they’ll harmlessly return to the earth in a home or commercial composting environment.
What Is a Compostable Garment Bag?
A compostable garment bag is made from plant-based biodegradable materials such as PLA and PBAT, designed to fully decompose into water, CO₂, and biomass under composting conditions—without leaving harmful residues.
It is widely used as a sustainable replacement for plastic garment bags in apparel packaging.
