Battersea Compostable Dog Poo Bags

Corstarch & PBAT. What is PBAT? A biodegradable copolymer.  PBAT is important because it's a biodegradable alternative to conventional plastics. 

The cornstarch used in our bags is a byproduct of the food industry.

Absolutely! Our bags are certified compostable to all European standards and biodegradable. 

3-6 months in the right conditions (Warm, moist and aerated). 

Even when you do not compost at home (which we know many people don’t) there are still many benefits to using our poo bags. 

Most dog poo bags end up being incinerated (burned). Burning conventional plastic bags can be extremely toxic and release dioxins. Burning compostable bags like ours is a lot safer and any CO2 that is released in the process is offset by the CO2 removed from the air when the bags were plants.

Like almost all dog poo bags, they are made in China since this is where the raw materials and factories are located. We only ever use sea freight to ship goods into the UK, never by air.

Poo bags can be measured by thickness in microns. Most poo bags are around 15 microns, with more premium ones being around 18 microns. We made our bags the thickest they can be, 20 microns! Which makes them stronger than most plastic poo bags. 

We have a total of 3 different sizes to suit all breads! 

Our largest bags are the:

 "Loose - Not on a roll" & "With handles, on a single roll" bags. They are perfect for the largest breed of dogs, estimated size is 14 x 7 inches. 

"Without handles - on a roll" - Our most popular option, size 13 x 9 inches. 

Smaller dogs;

"With handles - on a roll" - A popular choice for smaller dogs. Size 12 x 7 inches

There is no technical difference between all the colours, we just think it makes a mundane job more exciting! Scoop in colour with Adios Plastic  💩
