Description
Due to overwhelming requests from our customers, we are pleased to be able to offer you our full range of certified compostable bin liners.
While our first preference is composting your wet waste if possible cutting out the need for bin liners at all, we understand that each household is different and opting for no bin liner may not work for you.
When it comes to disposable bin bags, there can be a lot of mis-information out there and as this sector is rapidly developing, it can be hard to know what to look for in a bin liner.
Through our contacts in the industry and our thorough research, we believe that our bin liners meet the highest standards of environmental responsibility available on the market at this time. Our research of course is ongoing and as new information comes to light on this subject, you can be assured that we will always aim to offer our customers the most sustainable choice we can.
What makes our Compostable Bin Liners so good?
Unlike some other bags on the market, our bags are CERTIFIED compostable to Australian, European, USA & Japanese standards, which means they have been independently assessed to break down to virtually undetectable levels in the soil and are deemed “worm safe” with no micro plastic residues left behind.
Our bin bags are available in 4 sizes (8L, 30L, 36L and 60L) and are made from 100% GMO free renewable plants and are free from any plastic additives such as Polypropylene, Polyethylene, Polystyrene & PVC.
Our compostable bin liners are certified compostable in industrial composting facilities. As industrial composting facilities operate hot composts of between 50c-60c, our bags will break down within around 12 weeks. Our bags will of course break down over a longer period of time in general waste facilities, however due to the lack of necessary microbes found in these facilities it can take 6-12 months or more for the bags to break down to their natural cellulose beginnings.
Our bags are also certified “home compostable” and can be used in this manner, but like a general waste facility will simply take longer to break down if not hot composted.
IMPORTANT NOTES FOR USE: As our liners are compostable, unlike traditional single use plastic bin bags, it is important they are used ideally within 3-6 months of purchase and kept in a cool dark space, otherwise they may start to break down.
Compostable bin liners need to be treated slightly differently to traditional plastic bin liners as the material they are made from is designed to break down easier than plastic – which is a good thing, however, this may mean that if placing wet waste in your bin bags you need to empty your bin more frequently as if moisture is added, the composting process may begin and could lead to spills or splitting when emptying your bin on a weekly basis.
If possible, wrapping your wet waste in old newspaper first may help increase the life of your bag by preventing moisture from building up.
Sizing Guide:
Although bin bags have a litre capacity mentioned, this does not necessarily match the exact litre size of your bin. Due to the gusseted bottom in the bag, the bags lose a little height when in the bin, so we recommend the following:
8L/2.1 Gallon Liner – 5-6 Litre/1.5 Gallon capacity bins
30L/7.9 Gallon Liner – 15-20 Litre/4-5 Gallon capacity bins
36L/9.5 Gallon Liner – 25- 30 Litre/6-7 Gallon capacity bins
60L/15.8 Gallon Liner – 45-55 Litre/11-14 Gallon capacity bins
Bin shapes can vary, but the bags do fit most bin types if matched to bin sizing mentioned above.

Compostable Bin Liners
It can be challenging to find a functional yet eco-friendly way to dispose of your home waste without using plastic bags, but by putting in the extra effort to find alternatives, you can rest assured knowing that you are helping to reduce plastic pollution. Here are the best ways to dispose of home waste the eco-friendly way without the use of plastic bin liners;
Ways to Dispose Of Home Waste Without Using Plastic Bags
Invest in reusable shopping bags – Everyone has a need for shopping bags to help you carry groceries from the markets to your home. Brown paper bags which can be reused and recycled seem like an eco-friendly solution, but they’re not that practical for carrying heavy groceries home. On the other hand, reusable shopping bags are a lot stronger than brown paper or single use plastic bags and can be used for numerous functions. Invest in a collection of reusable shopping bags (Onya has a few options made from rPET, material made from recycled drink bottles) and keep them in your car and home so you won’t have to buy groceries in single use plastic bags ever again.
Use our eco-friendly bin liners – Stop buying plastic bin liners and invest in our plant-based compostable bin liners instead. With just a little bit of adjustment to your normal routine, these environment-friendly bags become just as functional as normal plastic bags, and you can easily dispose of all of your non-compostable and non-recyclable rubbish in them.
Start composting – A compost bin is a handy device where you can toss all of your green waste. With a compost bin, you will also have a steady supply of natural compost to use in your garden.
Start worm farming – Worm farming is another good way to dispose of your green waste. Get a batch of earthworms and start tossing all of your household waste into your bin. You can even toss your Onya bin liners into your worm farm. These bags are worm food safe, and those critters will help decompose the bags a lot quicker.
Our Bin Liners Are Suitable For Your Every Need
We have a range of compostable bin liners available from 8l up to 60l. With these bags, you can fulfil your rubbish removal need in an eco-friendly way. Our smaller bags are perfect for small bins in bedrooms or bathrooms while the 30l, 36l and 60l are perfect for your larger bins. You can easily replace your every need for plastic trash bags with our certified compostable bags.

These are so good. They are tough, strong and easy to separate. I also use the small ones (8L) for kitchen waste/compost and larger ones for general waste. Good price too.

Amazing bin liners
These are the best eco friendly bin liners around. I have recommended them to family and friends , who agree. They are strong and a nice color as well.
Jeanette S –
Simply the best
The only ones I’ve found that last a few days without falling apart when I take them out of the bin. Living by myself I don’t create a lot of waste & don’t want to be changing my bin liner every second day.

Handy compostable bin liners
These are great for smaller bins and being compostable is a big advantage.
Liga Z –
I have been using the bin liners for more than a year and a half and think they are great, however there is one that could improve it. It would be nice to have a tie to know off the ends when the bag is full.
Onya HQ –
Thank you for your ongoing support and review Liga. As we are a minimum waste company we have designed our Bin Liners without handles so as to eliminate any unnecessary waste that would be created by having handles as any material needing to be removed from the space between where the handles would be could not be used for any other purpose.
Jen L –
Don’t know yet!
Haven’t used yet… they seem good. 10 stars for customer service and values!
Kim W –
Compostable the way to go
Handles would be an improvement but otherwise great job
Onya HQ –
Thank you for your support and review Kim. Just wanted to touch base with you on the bin liner feedback. As we are a minimum waste company we have designed our Bin Liners without handles so as to eliminate any unnecessary waste that would be created by having handles as any material needing to be removed from the space between where the handles would be could not be used for any other purpose, we had hoped the illustration on our packaging and photos on our website would let customers know that our Bin liners are without handles, and we may revisit this illustration with our next print run.

Hoping you stock more dog poo bags as they were out when I made my order.
Kim McFayden –
Disappointed with these unfortunately. No handles and they decompose before the week is out.
Onya HQ –
Hi Kim,
We are sorry to hear that you are unhappy with our Compostable Bin Liners.

You may have missed the photos and information on our website on how to get the best use of our compostable bin liners so we have included this information below so hopefully you get the best result possible in using your bin liners in the future.

Once again, we are sorry that our bin liners have failed to meet your expectations.
