  • Nice feeling food waste bags, strong with tie handles.

    Just finished the last bag from my first box bought last june. Excellent food waste bags that fit my indoor small caddy perfectly. There is enough stretch in the bag to make it fit nice and secure on the caddy. I have had one bag tear but that was me being a bit too quick putting it on the caddy, not the products fault, so 1 in 120 is pretty good by my reckoning. Love the feel of the bag material too. Have just ordered a second box. Great product Generation Earth!

  • The best food waste bags

    Excellent product, does exactly what it says in the tin! The bags are strong, leak proof, thickness is good and the bags don't tear. For the quality and design the bags are exceptional value for money and are the perfect size. I would definitely buy this product again and highly recommend.

  • Good compost bags

    These are strong and durable compostable bags. The handles are really useful to have as they allow you to tie them up easily. I've had others without and it makes things awkward when the bags are full. They are a good thickness too, they don't fall apart as soon as you put an egg shell in it.

  • Great caddie liners

    These a good quality and fit nicely in our caddie. They are much better than the previous bags I bought as they don't break down in the caddie. The handles are great to tie it closed. Bought on offer so good value for money.

  • Sturdy tie handle compost bag

    Best green compost bin bag I've tried. Tie handle style. Thick and sturdy. Also used for non-compost bin liners due to its good quality.

  • Not for food caddy bags but good for black bin rubbish

    They can't be used as food caddy bags unfortunately as they don't survive a week, they leak into the caddy bin. But as they are biodegradable, I use them as daily rubbish bin bags and put them into the black bin, then at least they will degrade in an environmentally friendly way on the rubbish tip rather than using plastic bags which will sit there for a 1000 years.

  • Top quality bags at a good price

    I always use these bags for my food recycling bin. Just gently stretch the top first then they fit snuggly with a decent amount to tie at the top. Very strong. No leaks so far. This is my 3rd time of buying.

  • Great value / convenient bags for counter top

    Conveniently rolled like doggie clean-up bags, these exceed what the plastic shopping bags my family collects. These have no holes, are sturdier, and are easily grabbed / dispensed for use. I put them in an empty large coffee can to use as a counter top waste bag. Great value @ 120 bags for the price.
