Designed specifically to fit standard coffee knock tubes, these bags are an alternative to conventional fossil fuel petrochemical knock box coffee dump bags. They are also specified to meet the required performance standards, 85 microns thick to hold and move humid coffee pucks. If your business already separates organic material for composting, these bags make it easier to increase your diversion rates.

End of Life
Industrial Composting
Our compostable bin liners are certified compostable to the EN 13432, AS 4736 and ASTM D6400 standards for industrial composting, which requires the product to:
1) disintegrate after 12 weeks, and
2) completely biodegrade after six months*
*This means that 90% or more of the material will have been converted to CO2. The remaining share is converted into water and biomass – i.e. valuable compost.
Home Composting
Our compostable bin liners are certified compostable to EN 13432 (TÜV AUSTRIA, adapted for home compostability) and the AS 5810 standards for home composting, which requires a product to:
1) 100% biodegrade into completely non-toxic by-products, and
2) disintegrate within 180 days. Not more than 10% of the original dry weight may be found in a > 2mm screen fraction
3) ultimate biodegradability (90% absolute biodegradation, or 90% with a suitable reference substrate within 12 months).
