Sealing & Performance:
Suitable for sealing with most standard heat sealers.
Note: While these bags can be heat-sealed, the seal is light and not intended to be strong or airtight. These bags do not provide a moisture barrier, puncture resistance, or secure mechanical seal.

  1. Excellent bags for produce 5 Star Review

    Posted by on Mar 7th 2024

    These bags should replace every plastic produce bag at a grocery. They lasted me ~9 months (I am sure I could get 12 months of use from them) and have decent reusability value - I have found that on average I can get 2-3 uses out of 1 bag. Sometimes, if not careful, they can tear so be mindful to not insert any big lettuces or items that appear larger than the circumference of the opening of the bag, there is little forgivability there. Overall excellent product

  2. Green choice for Art and art prints 5 Star Review

    Posted by on Dec 26th 2022

    Im a caricature artist and I went compostable a few years back but I was using the hazy produce style bags that aren't very flattering to the artwork. I had been waiting for someone to make a crystal clear , compostable bag that was large enough for my drawings that I could use. These look great and don't tear easily like many compostable plastic alternatives. with compostable bags I'm able to reduce about 70lbs of plastice dumped into the environment every year-and now without sacrificing quality. I'm very happy.
