Product Information

Full details

The Econx 220 Litre Biodegradable Bin Liners are an ideal solution for homeowners and commercial facilities looking for a sustainable way to manage large volumes of organic, food, and household waste. These liners provide the key benefit of heavy-duty leak and tear protection through advanced multi-layer film technology, while ensuring full compostability under EN 13432 standards. The main caveat to consider is that while they are highly durable for organic matter, they should be stored in a cool, dry place to prevent the natural degradation process from beginning before they are put to use.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Are these liners truly compostable?

Yes, they are certified to the EN 13432 standard, meaning they are designed to break down in industrial composting facilities.

Can I use these for general landfill waste?

While they can hold general waste, they are specifically engineered to compost; using them for non-organic landfill waste may negate their environmental benefits.

Do these bags have an expiration date?

They don't have a fixed expiry date, but their degradation process starts when exposed to moisture and heat, so it is best to use them within 12 months.

How many liners come in a pack?

Each pack contains 10 high-quality, 220-litre liners.

Will these bags leak if I put wet food waste in them?

They are designed with multi-layer film to prevent leakage, but it is recommended to drain excess liquid from food waste before disposal.

Troubleshooting

Bag tearing during heavy disposal

Ensure items like sharp sticks or heavy glass are wrapped in paper or placed gently; the bag is designed for organic and household waste, not sharp debris.

Bag sliding down into the bin

Pull the bag further over the exterior rim of the bin and use a heavy-duty rubber band or the bin's own locking mechanism if available to secure the edges.

Moisture accumulation at the bottom

Place a layer of newspaper or a piece of cardboard at the bottom of the liner before adding wet food waste to absorb excess liquid.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Certified EN 13432 compostable
  • High tear and puncture resistance
  • Effective at containing moisture and odors
  • Perfectly sized for large 220L wheelie bins

Cons

  • Requires dry storage to avoid premature breakdown
  • Shelf life is limited compared to traditional plastic
  • Not suitable for heavy non-organic construction debris

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To set up, open the liner and insert it into your empty 220-litre wheelie bin, pulling the excess edges over the rim to create a secure fit. Ensure the bin is dry before inserting the liner to preserve its integrity. Compatibility is highest with standard 220-litre wheelie bins; verify your bin dimensions before purchase if you have a non-standard shape. Care is simple: keep the unused liners in their original packaging, stored in a cool, dark, and dry environment. Because the bags are designed to be biodegradable, exposure to high humidity or direct sunlight in storage can cause them to weaken over time.
