Plastic bags are more durable than paper bags. They are less prone to tearing, easier to carry, and are far more useful in bad weather. Plastic bags are reusable, as bin liners, as storage bags, or for picking up after the dog. #Morrison #RecycledPlastic #compostable #BeKind

Compostable means that a product is capable of disintegrating into natural elements in a compost environment, leaving no toxicity in the soil. This typically must occur in about 90 days. #Compostable #savetheplanet #Recycle #Chefs #environmentaljustice #restaurantnews #Kind

It takes 91% less energy to recycle a pound of plastic than it takes to recycle a pound of paper. (Recycling rates of either type of disposable bag are extremely low, with rates of 10-15% for paper and 1-3% for plastic.) #Recycle #savetheplanet

Plastic has enabled countless advances in our industry. Created to be light, durable, chemically resistant, non-reactive to outside influences, and easy to manufacture. #CHSA #recycleplastic #solarenergy #savetheplanet #Tesco100Years #HelpUsHelpYou #Morrison #aldi #SmileMore

Plastic packaging can survive extreme environments and don't easily degrade in hot and cold temperatures, thus preserving the integrity of the food or beverage inside it. It also protects your products from moisture, oxygen, dust, light and odours #environmental #Sustainability

Made from a wide range of organic polymers, plastic is an incredibly versatile material which plays a vital role in our everyday lives. Plastic is all around us – from the water bottles in our fridge, to the interior of our cars, to the medical devices used in hospitals #love

It is easy to overlook the advantages of plastic bags due to the perception that they are environmentally unfriendly. More effort on the disposal of waste is key #environment #Sustainability #recycleplastic #recycle #BeKind #YHA #localgov #plastics #KeepBritainTidy

Retailers have favoured plastic bags for as long as they have been available. About 50 years. The main advantages of plastic bags are that they are cost-effective, easy to use, and convenient to store. #Environment #Sustainability #chef #Tesco #recycleplastic #localgov

The benefits of plastics are unmatched by any other material. It is light, easily shaped, strong and inexpensive. Its ability to guard against contamination makes it useful in sterile medical environments such as hospitals. #caringhands #restaurants #morrisons #recycling #NHS
