  • The real difference with these bags is that they will degrade in landfill at a significantly quicker rate than conventional bubble bags as they promote the growth of microbial colonies.
  • The polyethylene used in these bags is much easier to break down than commercial grades which have polymers with a higher molecular weight and, therefore, very resistant to direct microbial attack.
  • Do not contain heavy toxic metals.
  • The oxo-biodegradable bubble used in these bags is not a perfect solution but certainly a step in the right direction in reducing waste for future generations.
  • Waste material is only truly ‘eco friendly’ when it is recycled responsibly.
  • Made with 30% recycled content.
  • Still made from high quality 70mu bubble wrap.
  • Approx 30mm non self seal lip.

    • Prices per box

    These bags will only quickly down fully when there is warmth, moisture and bacterial colonies i.e. conditions found in landfill. The fungi and bacteria can then break the material down, producing water, biomass and carbon dioxide.

    Please note that these bags are not certified as compostable according to EU standard EN13432.

    The real clever thing about these bags is that the oxo-biodegradable properties does not effect the strength of the bag. It will take approximately two years for the bags to begin to lose their physical properties under the correct conditions.

    When a green image is important to your business then these bags are certainly a step in the right direction.

    All bubble wrap off cuts from production are returned to our supplier for recycling. Nothing goes to waste !

    They have a green tint to them and still have the same quality and strength as our premium bubble bags .

    Machine tolerance of +/-  5%

    Not a perfect solution but regarded as a step in the right direction in controlling plastic waste.

    The technical stuff…

    Biodegradable bubble bags are made from a formulation containing a mixture of a non hazardous metal ion pro-oxidant system and a biodegradation initiator. Basically, these bubble bags will promote the growth of microbial colonies to break them down over time. Don’t worry, this doesn’t happen straight away ! You wont open your box of bubble bags and find a pile of green mush ! The process takes 24 months and is dependant on temperature and where they are stored. The process of degradation is accelerated in higher temperatures and high UV levels. This material is the same used in retail carrier bags and is now found in a broad range of polyethylene based products. It is very clever stuff and helps prevent our landfill sites being filled with polythene products that will take thousands of years to degrade !

    All biodegradable bubble bags are made from our premium strength bubble wrap. We also offer a bespoke service in these grades .

    Please email or call our office for a free sample service .

    This product must still be recycled responsibly.

    Eco-Friendly Bubble Bag Options

    We offer recyclable and eco-friendly bubble bags made with reduced plastic content or recycled materials. Our bubble bags are made from at least 30% recycled material. Our oxo-biodegradable bubble bags offer a better solution as they will degrade quicker than standard bubble bags helping businesses meet environmental goals without compromising product protection. Not a perfect solution but a step in the right direction. There is currently understandable concern regarding plastics and the environment. In most cases bubble wrap can be recycled with other types of film but you must first check with your local council, recycling centre or collection point before disposing. To avoid plastics reaching our oceans, the best solution is to dispose of them responsibly at approved recycling centres.

    How To Choose The Right Bubble Bags

    When selecting bubble bags, consider the following factors:
    • Product size and weight
    • Fragility level
    • Shipping distance and handling conditions
    • Required sealing method
    • Environmental sustainability requirements

    Choosing the correct bubble thickness and bag size ensures maximum protection and cost efficiency.
