What are branded paper bags used for?

Paper bags are probably one of the most common packaging products used by both local grocery shops and large food chains. Whether it's the local clothing store, a bakery, a burger joint, or a grocery chain like Lidl, they all use branded paper bags to be recognized when their customers leave the store. 

Due to so many businesses using paper bags, different types of bags have been created to suit their specific needs. Some categories of paper bags are made for very specific purposes, while others are very common and can be used for almost anything.

Recyclability and degradability 

One of the reasons why paper bags have become very popular in the last couple of years is because of the focus on the large plastic waste in the ocean. Since paper bags are made of virgin paper and most of them are not coated with plastic or aluminum, they are able to degrade in nature. The same goes for paper bags with print, as the ink used for the print is degradable. However, this doesn’t mean that you should dispose of your paper bags in nature, as it still takes between 6-12 months for them to degrade in nature. 

The best thing you can do is to dispose of the paper bags properly, but especially sort them and send them to paper waste, as paper bags can be recycled and used for other products.

If the paper bags are coated or have been used for food materials, they should be thrown out as normal trash.

Paper bags or plastic bags?

One of the things that have been discussed a lot is whether plastic bags or paper bags are more sustainable. There are many perspectives to it, so we will just try to cover some of the most important ones in regards to sustainability.

Plastic bags are not degradable in nature, whereas paper bags both can degrade in nature but also at standard compost facilities. However, it is possible to make biodegradable plastic bags that can degrade in special industrial compost. Since it is very difficult to differentiate bio and non-bio plastic bags from each other, these special industrial composts are not very common. 

When it comes to recyclability, then both kinds of bags are actually recyclable if they are collected and brought to recycling facilities. The primary problem with plastic bags and recyclability is that many plastic bags are very thin, so the material will be really hard to recycle and the recycled plastic will often have bad quality. 

The last aspect of sustainability is the CO2 emitted during production of both paper and plastic bags. It has been a subject for many research papers in Denmark. The Technical University of Denmark has made a report saying that plastic bags are more climate-friendly due to less CO2 emitted during production. The report actually ends up concluding that paper bags have to be reused 45 times to emit as little CO2 as plastic bags do for one-time use. It is bleached paper bags that are compared with the standard shopping plastic bag made of LDPE.
