Whether 100% compostable, oxo-biodegradable or biodegradable, plastic bags are not accepted in food waste collection. Which material in your brown bin is accepted or rejected depends on the site and the processing technology used.

Given the variety and complexity of bags available on the market, the risk of contamination and rejection during the treatment of organic materials is too high. Moreover, these bags cause an increase in operating costs. 

We urge you to use paper bags, cardboard or newspaper.

Old newspapers, flyers, paper grocery bags or cardboard wrapping material may be used.
