Are Doggie Poop Bags Biodegradable?

7 days ago

Most doggie poop bags are plastic and will not biodegrade. Certified compostable bags will, which raises the question every dog owner asks next: will a compostable bag hold up on the walk?


The common worry: “Will it break?”

It is a fair question. Early compostable bags had a reputation for tearing or getting soft in the rain. Materials have improved a lot. A good compostable bag should be:

•          Strong: no tearing when you tie the knot

•          Leak-proof: reliable in wet grass and rainy weather

•          Easy to open: a quick separation on the roll, even with gloves on

•          Truly compostable: certified, not just labelled


Earthmate on the daily walk

Earthmate bags combine plastic-like strength with certified compostability, and they are strong enough not to break when wet. They come on rolls, in packs of 240, 360 or 720 bags, so you can stock up for the season.

And when the walk is over, they are certified home compostable to NF T51-800:2015, made from vegetable-based bioresins in Ontario, Canada.
