While some families choose to compost at home – and we applaud them! – commercial composting offers some appealing benefits, too. It allows families to enjoy the rewards of composting without giving up garden space or spending weekends tending a compost pile.
And, the commercial composting process is more efficient. Due to their size and scope, commercial composting facilities can reliably create the conditions needed for composting bio-plastics — a delicate balance of temperature, air flow, moisture and other factors.
Commercial composters have the size, scope and staffing to achieve this; bio-plastics generally can’t be composted at home. Our Ziploc® Brand Compostable Bags are not suitable for back garden composting for this reason.
