Cover-Story<br />
New convenient and compostable waste<br />
bags have hit German retail stores<br />
Frankenthal, Germany-based RKW has launched a<br />
biodegradable star-sealed bag for organic household waste<br />
in Germany. Certified as fully compostable, it is also the first<br />
T-shirt star-sealed bag available on the market made from<br />
more than 50 % renewable PLA - material.<br />
For family-owned film manufacturer<br />
RKW, sustainability is an integral part of its<br />
business mission, and this includes the use<br />
of biodegradable or biobased films. RKW<br />
Vietnam, which is specialized in consumer<br />
packaging, produces the compostable bags<br />
in Ho Chi Minh City.<br />
Star-sealed, the new bag is created<br />
without gussets and sealed in a single spot,<br />
making it highly practical and virtually leakproof.<br />
For organic waste, many people use<br />
paper bags, which, while fully biodegradable, tend to become<br />
soggy and tear easily when taken out of the bin. The bags come<br />
with carrying handles that can be used to tie them shut, and<br />
the star-sealed bottom that consumers are familiar with from<br />
conventional plastic-based trash bags. Fully compostable and<br />
hence suited for organic waste, the bags will be supplied by<br />
major retailers.<br />
“RKW is a pioneer on the market,” says Manh-Hung Ngo,<br />
Product Manager at RKW Vietnam. “So far,<br />
bags with up to 40 % renewable content have<br />
been available in markets such as France<br />
or Italy. We were able to design bags with a<br />
significant higher proportion. Hence, these<br />
waste bags are another milestone towards<br />
a more sustainable future.” The bag is fully<br />
compostable and certified to European<br />
standard EN13432 by the DIN Certco<br />
institute in Berlin (Germany).<br />
The bag is suited for bins with different<br />
shapes and prevents the leakage of liquids.<br />
Multiple layers strengthen the bottom,<br />
avoiding damage to the bag. Combining the practical features<br />
with benefits in terms of sustainability, the new bags are a<br />
more environmentally friendly and a convenient option for<br />
consumers. MT<br />
