We had to do a lot of homework to offer these on our site!  There are many products now hopping onto the "eco-friendly pet products" bandwagon, but not all have the required certifications for the claims they may be making for their products. Compost-A-Pak is an Australian family owned company, based in Newcastle and they do have the required certifications in place to support their products. They specialise in recycling and sustainable waste management products and services across a variety of industries.

Compost-A-Pak Dog Waste Bags are Certified compostable to the strict Australian standard, for both home composting (AS5810) and commercial composting (AS4736), as well as the relevant European, American and Japanese standards for commercial composting. In the same way as vegetable scraps, the products will break down into humus, water and carbon dioxide in a commercial composting facility in a matter of weeks. The certifications ensure you can be confident there will be no harmful residue as the liners break down.

All Compost-A-Pak products are made from a natural starch-based polymer derived from corn. Corn was chosen as it is an annually renewable crop, unlike trees, which can take years to grow. The actual crops are sourced from international GMO-free regions with high levels of rain, to minimise irrigation, and the corn selected is third grade corn. This is basically spoilt corn, a waste product traditionally left by farmers to rot, that is not suitable for human or animal consumption.

Through purpose built equipment, Compost-A-Pak products are made using significantly less electricity consumption, compared to manufacturing on conventional equipment. The products are also printed with soy-based inks.

Being a home compostable product and not a nasty plastic, Compost-A-Pak products have a recommended shelf life of 12 months (so don't buy more than you need!).

Your Compost-A-Pak Dog Poo Bags are worm farm safe too. So if you have a worm farm set up to deal with your dogs doos they are good to go straight in!

SIZES:  4 Roll Pack;  8 Roll Pack

Each roll has 15 bags.

Note if you are using these bags with standard plastic doggy bag holders, you may need to remove a few bags to squeeze the roll in. Otherwise, for softer style poop bag holders, they should be fine to pop right in!
