Key features & specs

How it compares

When compared to traditional high-density polyethylene liners, these HoldOn bags provide similar puncture resistance without the centuries-long environmental footprint. Unlike standard biodegradable bags that often require industrial facilities, these are designed to break down in a backyard compost pile, offering more flexibility than generic store-brand compostable liners.

What to know before buying

1. Store the box in a cool, dry place to prevent premature degradation of the plant-based polymers.
2. Avoid overfilling with excessively wet food scraps to maintain the integrity of the bottom seal for longer periods.
3. Ensure your local municipality accepts BPI or TUV certified compostable materials if not composting at home.
4. Replace the bag every 3 to 5 days to ensure the best performance and odor control.
