In this society full of the top on environmental protection, eco-friendly packaging has become the first choice to package what the people want to insert. From baker news, it’s said that bakers are transforming their packaging to be more eco-friendly, amid increasing environmental concerns. Thus, friendly reusable bags are more and more popular in the market. Now let's take a look at the kind of bags together and know about why are they more and more popular now.
What is eco-friendly reusable bags?
A eco-friendly reusable bag is a bag made of environment-friendly materials, which is mainly used for shopping and storing goods. Different from ordinary plastic bags, the bags are made of recyclable materials, which have minimal impact on the environment. At present, many eco-friendly materials are degradable. At present, these processing materials are mostly polyethylene and kraft paper, because their degradation ability is better than other materials.
What are their advantages?
There are many advantages of friendly reusable bags. They are recyclable and easy to store; at the same time they are safe for our bodies and our environment etc..
About eco-friendly materials
The main materials of the bags are recyclable materials, such as polyethylene, polypropylene, PVC, kraft paper, etc. These materials play good performances such as good toughness, high strength and strong chemical corrosion resistance. Of course, it is the most important that they can be recycled.
The following are currently common friendly reusable bags:
PLA bags
The PLA bags are one kind of degradable environmental protection bags made of polylactic acid (PLA). They can be rapidly degraded in the natural environment without causing pollution to the environment. Compared with traditional plastic bags, PLA bags are softer, better in texture and more comfortable to the touch. In addition, they can be reused many times with a long service life, which can effectively reduce traditional plastic bags.
Starch bags
The starch environmental protection bags are the other kind of degradable environmental protection bags made of starch. They can be decomposed into carbon dioxide and water in the natural environment without causing pollution to the environment. The starch environmental protection bags can be reused many times. In addition, the color and printing effect of the starch environmental protection bags are also very good, which is very suitable for shopping bags, gift bags and other occasions.
PBAT bags
PBAT environmental protection bags are made of polybutylene succinate (PBAT). They can be decomposed into carbon dioxide and water in the natural environment without causing pollution to the environment. Compared with traditional plastic bags, PBAT environmental protection bags are softer, better in texture and more comfortable to the touch. In addition, the printing of PBAT environmental protection bags shows good performance , which is also very suitable for shopping bags, gift bags and other occasions as starch bags.
Biodegradable paper bags
A degradable paper bag is an environment-friendly bag made of degradable materials. It can be decomposed into environmentally friendly substances in the natural environment without causing pollution to the environment. Compared with traditional plastic bags, biodegradable paper bags such as kraft paper bags are more eco-friendly meanwhile can be used many times.
The application of friendly reuse bags
Shopping bags
Eco-friendly reusable bags can replace traditional plastic shopping bags, used as the shopping bags in supermarkets or shopping malls. They not only protects the environment, but also ensure our health.
Garbage bags
The environmental protection bags can also be used as garbage bags. Their tough texture can support the weight of garbage as well as they has good sealing performance in avoiding environmental pollution caused by garbage dripping.
Food bags
Kraft paper environmental protection bags are now widely used in different kinds of food such as bread and fast food. As everyone's awareness of environmental protection increases, the current food packaging bags are no longer simply used as traditional plastic packaging bags, but most of them are used as kraft paper bags to pack food. Due to the degradability of kraft paper bags, the kraft paper bags are popular with many manufacturers.
With the improvement of environmental protection awareness, friendly reusable bags will gradually replace traditional plastic bags and become mainstream bags. Each eco-friendly degradable bag has its own characteristics and advantages, and we can choose the bags according to actual needs. Let us make our own contribution to our environment together!
