PRODUCT OVERVIEW
Why specify ES-FB-07
Anti-Fog Compostable Food Bags — Crystal-Clear Visibility for Refrigerated Produce and Prepared Foods.
Material: PLA+PBAT+Corn Starch with integrated anti-fog treatment. Gauge: 20–45 microns.
Refrigerated Produce Retail Display: Bagged salads, cut vegetables, fresh herbs, and prepared crudites — anti-fog clarity ensures product visibility and freshness perception throughout the entire cold chain journey. Bakery and Prepared Foods Display Cases: Bread, pastries, sandwi
Anti-fog performance is optimized for refrigerated display temperatures (2–8°C). Performance may vary at sustained high ambient temperatures above 30°C or in very high-humidity environments above 85% RH where condensation dynamics differ.
Anti-fog performance is optimized for refrigerated display temperatures (2–8°C). Performance may vary at sustained high ambient temperatures above 30°C or in very high-humidity environments above 85% RH where condensation dynamics differ. Not suitable for applications requiring simultaneous anti-fog and anti-static properties — these require conflicting surface energy characteristics. Industrial compostable only — not home compost certified.
WHY CHOOSE THIS PRODUCT
Key Features
Anti-fog integrated into the polymer matrix during extrusion
not a topical coating — performance lasts the full shelf life
Crystal-transparent from 2–8°C cold chain to checkout
reduces fogging-driven purchase-intent loss by up to 30%
PLA+PBAT+corn starch film at 20–45 microns
starch content cuts polymer consumption by 12–15%
Anti-fog agent is itself EN 13432 compostable
the entire bag — film, treatment, and inks — composts as one unit
Tensile, elongation, tear, and seal strength unchanged
identical mechanics to standard film of equivalent gauge
Retail trials show approximately 7% less food waste
clear visibility reduces premature disposal of fresh product

CERTIFICATIONS
Certifications explained
EN 13432 — EU Compostability Standard
Covers the complete product including the anti-fog treatment: 90%+ biodegradation within 6 months, plus disintegration and ecotoxicity limits.
ASTM D6400 (BPI) — North American Compostability Standard
The US reference standard for compostable claims, verified through BPI certification.
OK Compost INDUSTRIAL — TUV Austria
Industrial-compostability mark: verified to biodegrade at 58°C+ in managed facilities within 90–180 days. This product is industrial-compostable only — see limitations.
OEM / ODM
Customization Options
Custom size from 20cm x 30cm to 40cm x 60cm. Adjustable anti-fog intensity level based on application requirements. Up to 6-color flexographic printing with precise registration. Custom retail packaging formats including boxed, header card, or bulk. Minimum 500 kg for fully custom production. Stock sizes from 60 cartons.
FACTORY CAPABILITIES
Esinle OEM Capabilities
The selected format can be reviewed against these Guangzhou manufacturing capabilities. Final feasibility, tolerances and MOQ are confirmed in the approved specification.
Custom Dimensions
Width, gusset depth and length can be reviewed against your packaging-line requirements and converting limits.
Printing & Branding
Flexographic artwork, colour count, print coverage and plate requirements are checked before MOQ and pricing are confirmed.
In-House Compounding
PLA, PBAT and starch blend options are selected around flexibility, strength, processing and the documented claim required for the SKU.
BEHIND EVERY PRODUCT
Integrated production in Guangzhou
The workflow covers compounding, film blowing, printing and bag conversion, with the order specification used as the reference for in-process and final checks.
USE CASES
Applications
Refrigerated Produce Retail Display
Bagged salads, cut vegetables, fresh herbs, and prepared crudites — anti-fog clarity ensures product visibility and freshness perception throughout the entire cold chain journey
Bakery and Prepared Foods Display Cases
Bread, pastries, sandwiches, and grab-and-go meals — clear visibility through the bag drives impulse purchases at the point of display
Grab-and-Go Refrigerated Meal Kits
Pre-portioned meal components where individual ingredient visibility is critical to the customer purchase decision — each component clearly visible without opening
HONEST TRANSPARENCY
Limitations & Storage
Anti-fog performance is optimized for refrigerated display temperatures (2–8°C). Performance may vary at sustained high ambient temperatures above 30°C or in very high-humidity environments above 85% RH where condensation dynamics differ. Not suitable for applications requiring simultaneous anti-fog and anti-static properties — these require conflicting surface energy characteristics. Industrial compostable only — not home compost certified.
FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Does the anti-fog treatment wash off or degrade over time?
No. Our anti-fog treatment is integrated into the polymer matrix during the blown film extrusion process — it is not a topical coating applied after manufacturing. The hydrophilic property is inherent to the film structure and persists for the entire shelf life of the bag. Even after washing with cool water, the anti-fog performance remains fully intact.
Is the anti-fog agent itself certified compostable?
Yes — this is a key differentiator from conventional anti-fog bags. Traditional anti-fog agents use petrochemical-based surfactants that do not biodegrade and can leave persistent chemical residues in compost. Our proprietary treatment is based on modified polylactic acid oligomers that are fully biodegradable under EN 13432 testing. The entire finished bag — film, anti-fog treatment, and printing inks — is certified compostable as a complete product unit.
Does the anti-fog treatment affect mechanical properties or seal strength?
No. Independent mechanical testing confirms the anti-fog treatment has no measurable effect on tensile strength at break, elongation at break, tear resistance, or heat seal integrity. Mechanical properties are identical to our standard non-anti-fog film of equivalent gauge and formulation.
