… for about the same cost as regular plastic bags.

Unlike other types of degradable bags, they leave no toxic residue when they degrade, nor do they compromise the recycle chain if they are recycled with other plastics. GXT Green Certified ECOgrade degradable bags provide the ultimate bagging solution, without compromising convenience.

Finally the end to the “paper or plastic” debate: Degradable Bags
Each year millions of discarded plastic shopping bags end up as litter in the environment

Regular plastic bags can take up to 400 years to degrade, can be dangerous to wildlife if ingested, and may leech toxic chemicals into soil, lakes, rivers, and oceans.
Paper bags are no better: It takes approximately four times as much energy to manufacture a paper bag than it does to manufacture a plastic bag, generates more air pollution, and creates 50 times more water pollution than plastic bags.
Reusable bags are an inconvenience, and raise concerns about sanitary food handling.
GXT Green ECOgrade Bags are a better bag solution. ECOgrade degradable bags are composed of about 50% organic and naturally occurring materials and degrade in approximately 240 days. …And customers love using them!
