4 WHY Degradable is Better Conventional plastics do not break down. Degradable Bags Our degradable bags can break apart to particles when exposed to sunlight and do not give off harmful chemicals to our environment when exposed to heat. Less impact on marine life. As an alternative to traditional plastic bags, our degradable bags have an additive called TDPA (manufactured by EPI) which helps the bag to break down into smaller particles in conditions where the bag is exposed to natural UV light, heat and oxygen.

8 CALICO COTTON Compostable Bags Ecopack s range of 100% Compostable Bags are an eco-friendly alternative to traditional plastic bags. They are a smarter and more sustainable packaging choice and are specifically designed to be sustainable from start to finish. Ecopack s Compostable Bags begin to decompose in a compost pile taking approximately 90 days to break down (depending on compost conditions such as temperature) leaving no harmful residues in the process. This eliminates the impact of many tons of plastic bags sitting in our landfills for thousands of years or ending up in our oceans negatively impacting our marine life. WHY Compostable is Better 100% Plastic free and biodegradable, this means it breaks down to carbon dioxide and water without leaving harmful residues in the process. Home and commercially compostable. Made from natural starchbased Polymer derived from corn and printed with water based eco friendly inks. No side affects on our eco systems especially on our ocean.

17 RECYCLED PLASTIC BAGS Find the right bin liner for your bin Determine the correct bin liner size by following these simple steps: 1. Determine the width of the bin liner you need For bin liners with a gusset: Measure half of the bin s outer circumference The gusset is a folded section on either side of the bag which runs the length of the bag. The gusset is measured by its expansion diameter. Adding the width and gusset measurements gives the total width of the bin liner. For bin liners with no gusset: For round bins: Measure the diameter of the bin and multiply by 3.14 For square bins: Measure all four sides of the bin and add this together 2. Determine the length of the bin liner you need For round bins: Measure the bin s height, add half the diameter of the bin s base and add 7 cm (for overhang). For square bins: Measure the bin s height, add half the diagonal of the bin s base and add 7 cm (for overhang). 17.
