Are Dog Bags Biodegradable?
Most doggy bags are not biodegradable. Most are also imported from far away. If you care about your dog’s environmental pawprint, both the material and the origin of the bag matter.
Two questions worth asking
1. What is it made of? Conventional plastic stays in landfills for centuries. Certified compostable materials break down into compost.
2. Where is it made? A bag shipped across oceans carries a longer supply chain. A locally made bag supports local jobs and a company you can contact directly.
Made in Canada, from start to finish
Earthmate is a small, family-owned company, founded in Ontario in 2015 as a brand of Exser Canada. We do not just repackage imported bags: we extrude and convert our products in our own Ontario manufacturing facility.
Our certified-compostable resins are sourced in Canada, the United States and Europe. They are vegetable-based, not fossil-based. The finished bags are certified home compostable to NF T51-800:2015.
Pick up green. Buy Canadian.
Every time you pick up after your dog, you can keep plastic out of the landfill and support Canadian manufacturing at the same time.
