Replace Polyethylene bags for Bread Packaging with Polylactic Acid (PLA) coated Paper Bags

Polyethylene or Plastic bags are not completely biodegradable and require more energy to recycle. The growing appeal of eco-friendly alternatives is compelling manufacturers and packaging units to use eco-friendly packaging. Grease resistant natural kraft paper (generally used for bread bags, bakery bread sheets) is unbleached, 100% compostable, and recyclable material. These bags are made out of 50% repurposed coffee bean bag fiber and 50% post-consumer waste, these 100% recycled paper bags are perfect for customers looking to lower their carbon footprint on the environment. These bags are lined with PLA, making them 100% compostable as well. Polylactic acid (PLA) is a corn-based polymer and is compostable as well. As a part of Lean and Energy Assessment at a facility, this measure eliminated use of approximately 3,333 polyethylene bags a day. More information about bio-based and bio-degradable plastics
