Compostable Bin Liners & Coffee Dump Bags: Strong, Sustainable Solutions for a Circular Future
As businesses and households move toward more sustainable waste solutions, compostable bin liners and coffee dump bags have become essential tools for reducing landfill waste. At Paper Lane Packaging, we supply high-performance compostable liners designed for strength, durability, and environmental responsibility—helping you transition to a truly circular waste system without compromising on performance.
Why Choose Compostable Bin Liners?
Our Compostable Bin Liners are engineered to deliver strong puncture and tear resistance, making them an excellent alternative to traditional plastic rubbish bags. Whether used in cafés, commercial kitchens, offices, or homes, these liners maintain reliability while supporting eco-friendly waste management.
Made from a blend of PLA (Polylactic Acid), PBAT (Polybutylene Adipate Terephthalate) and plant-based cornstarch, and printed using non-toxic inks, they are fully certified for:
-
Industrial composting (AS 4736, EN 13432, ASTM D6400)
-
Home composting (AS 5810, TÜV Austria OK Compost HOME)
This means they safely break down into nutrient-rich compost—never microplastics.
A Range of Sizes for Every Waste Stream
We offer a wide selection of compost-ready bin liner sizes, ideal for households, cafés, hospitality venues, offices, and commercial facilities:
-
30L liners — 18 microns thick (mint green & pink rolls)
-
54L liners — 22 microns thick (mint green)
-
80L liners — 25 microns thick (mint green & pink rolls)
-
140L liners — 25 microns thick (mint green)
-
240L liners — 25 microns thick (mint green)
Each liner is designed for maximum durability, ensuring superior puncture resistance while still remaining fully compostable.
Custom branding options are also available—perfect for eco-focused brands wanting to highlight their sustainability commitments.
