Eargardin drawstring trash bag 4 gallons 30 count green compostable

4-gallon compostable drawstring bags

These 4-gallon drawstring bags are made from cornstarch and contain no plastic components. They are certified to ASTM D6400 and EN 13432 standards and carry OK Compost Home certification. The pack contains 30 green bags sized at 17.7 by 15.7 inches with a thickness of .78 mils. They suit households that want certified home-compostable liners for small wastebaskets.

Home composting limits and storage

The bags meet ASTM D6400 and EN 13432 requirements and are OK Compost Home certified, meaning they are approved for home composting facilities. Decomposition begins after 180 days in a composting environment, breaking down into water, carbon dioxide and organic matter. They are not suited for buyers who need bags that degrade quickly in conventional landfill conditions or who lack any composting setup. Store the bags in a cool place and use within one year of purchase.

Drawstring fit and common issues

The drawstring closure helps secure the bag around standard 4-gallon bins, but the fixed dimensions of 17.7 by 15.7 inches may not match every wastebasket shape. Overfilling can stress the starch-based material and cause tearing or leaks. Users who need heavier-duty construction for sharp or very wet waste may find these bags less durable than conventional plastic liners.
