Biodegradable Cellophane Gift Bags
These cellophane goodie bags offer a clear, crisp presentation while being gentle on the planet. They are static-free and heat-sealable, ensuring your products stay secure and fresh. Unlike plastic alternatives, these cellophane wrap will not degrade on the shelf, maintaining their strength and clarity. Biodegradation occurs only in compost or waste environments, where natural microorganisms can break them down.
Ideal for retailers, gift shops, and businesses seeking to reduce their environmental impact, these clear cellophane gift bags combine style and sustainability seamlessly.
Biodegradable Cellophane Gift Bags
Feature of Cellophane Gift Bag
Biodegradability is a property of certain materials to decompose under specific environmental conditions.Cellophane film, which makes up cellophane bags, is made from cellulose broken down by microorganisms in microbial communities like compost piles and landfills. Cellophane bags have cellulose which gets converted into humus. Humus is a brown organic material formed by the breakdown of plant and animal residue in the soil.

Biodegradable VS Compostable
Tests have shown that, when buried or composted, un-coated cellulose film typically breaks down in an average of 28 to 60 days. Coated cellulose breakdown ranges from 80 to 120 days. In lake water, the average bio-degradation for un-coated is 10 days and 30 days for coated. Unlike true cellulose, BOPP film is not biodegradable, but rather, it is recyclable. BOPP remains inert when discarded, and it does not leach any toxins into the soil or water table.

Biodegradability is a property of certain materials to decompose under specific environmental conditions.Cellophane film, which makes up cellophane bags, is made from cellulose broken down by microorganisms in microbial communities like compost piles and landfills.cellophane bags have cellulose which gets converted into humus. Humus is a brown organic material formed by the breakdown of plant and animal residue in the soil.
cellophane bags lose their strength and stiffness during decomposition until they completely break down into tiny fragments or granules. Microorganisms can easily digest these particles.
Cellophane or cellulose is a polymer consisting of long chains of glucose molecules linked together. Microorganisms in the soil break down these chains as they feed on cellulose, using it as their food source.
As cellulose gets converted to simple sugars, its structure begins to break down.In the end, only sugar molecules remain. These molecules become absorbable in the soil. Alternatively, microorganisms can feed on them as food.
In a nutshell, cellulose gets decomposed into sugar molecules that are easily absorbable and digestible by microorganisms in the soil.
The aerobic decomposition process generates carbon dioxide, which is recyclable and does not remain as a waste material.
Cellophane Bags are 100% biodegradable and contain no toxic or harmful chemicals.
So, you can dispose of them in the garbage bin, home compost site, or at local recycling centers which accept disposable bioplastic bags.
