Are coffee bags biodegradable

2022-12-06

Coffee has become a daily necessity for most people, and of course coffee bags are also essential packaging - it keeps your coffee fresh and maximizes flavor. However, this packaging choice raises some environmental concerns. For example, can you recycle them? Are they biodegradable?

Well, coffee bags can be biodegradable, but it depends on the materials they're made from. For instance, kraft paper bags are sometimes used for packaging coffee, and they're completely biodegradable. And some brands use fermented carbohydrates, rice paper or kraft paper to make their coffee bags. These options are entirely biodegradable, so you don`t have to worry about polluting the environment even if you throw them in a trash can.

But for the most part, the zippers and degassing valves on coffee bags aren't compostable; they're compostable. So as a roaster, this should be clearly marked on the packaging so that consumers can properly dispose of their used coffee bags.
