EcoSack paper sacks are a strong choice for all garden waste. The sacks are moisture and puncture resistant making them sturdy enough to withstand the rigours of a kerbside collection.
Local Authorities and waste management organisations throughout the UK have recognized the great benefit of using paper sacks. One of these, East Cambridgeshire District Council, has been using EcoSack’s 75 litre sack in its fortnightly compostables kerbside collection for about three years. Gerald Tickner, client officer said: “We have had no problems with the
garden waste sacks and our composters, Donarbon of Waterbeach, have had no problems either. The
garden waste paper sacks just break down along with their
contents.”
Donarbon General Manager Jim Edmeades comment: “We do not take plastic sacks, preferring instead to use sacks like those produced by Ecosack. The plastic sacks contaminate the green waste when shredded and the small pieces of plastic will not break down in our composting
process.”
