Compostable Cellophane Bags 4 x 2.75 x 11"

Product Description

Often other companies will dispose of imperfect but usable products - causing needless waste. As part of our no-waste philosophy, we've chosen to offer these imperfect 4 x 2.75 x 11" Compostable cellophane bags at a discounted price.

This product does not meet our strict quality standards, therefore is discounted and final sale. Here are the notable imperfections:

Weak bottom seal and weak back seam. Seams may fail if used for heavy goods, or if bag is held from top edges and shaken.
An estimated 50% of these bags are imperfect, and the remaining 50% are estimated to be first quality and unaffected.
Not suitable for heavier items (such as candy-coated chocolate, etc.)
Best used for low weight items (such as a croissant, etc.)

Please see product photos for examples. Not all bags have been checked individually, estimates are based on quality control sampling.

Compostable cellophane bags are a great eco-friendly alternative to petroleum-based plastics. The most sustainable packaging the planet has to offer! Perfect for packaging dry food products (such as tea, grains, and spices), as well as apparel and other non-food items.
