FAQ
Frequently asked questions
How many uses can I realistically expect before composting?
Our wear-testing protocol (500 cycles at 5 lb load) showed no functional degradation. In real-world use, customers typically report 20–50 shopping trips before the first signs of film thinning appear. The bag remains compostable regardless of how many times it is used.
Does the printing hold up to repeated use?
Our flexographic inks are UV-cured for abrasion resistance. In wash-down testing (simulating light rain exposure), print legibility remained above 95% after 50 uses. The inks are water-based and compostable, so some gradual fade is expected and considered a feature — it signals the bag's natural origin.
Can this bag be washed?
Spot-clean with a damp cloth and mild soap. Do not machine wash or submerge — prolonged water exposure will initiate the biodegradation process. Air-dry away from direct heat sources.
