Organic Waste Systems (Gent, Belgium) Evaluates a 20-micron Thick Goody Bag Under Aerobic Composting Conditions

11-Jan-10 16:31 | David S. Brooks (administrator)
The attached report (link below) from Organic Waste Systems (Gent, Belgium) evaluates a 20-micron thick Goody bag vs. two certified compostable bags and a paper bag under aerobic composting conditions. The report clearly shows that bags with additives from Goody Products in Australia are not compostable and will generate large amounts of plastic residues.
