Ideal for collection and processing food waste.

Food waste collection is more challenging than leaf and yard waste collection because:

• Food waste is wetter and heavier
• Food waste has a greater risk of odor generation
• Residue would most likely stick on the inside of the bin

In order to encourage and increase compliance in separation with efficiency and cost of the composting program, paper bags are ideal for collection and processing:

• They help absorb moisture of food waste at collection
• They breathe, favoring  aerobic conditions, and help the reduction of food waste odour emissions
• They provide carbon to the composting mix, improving the initial carbon/nitrogen ratio
