Pet food bags are a little trickier. Their hefty material falls somewhere between plastic and metal, leading many pet parents to do the confused shuffle between the trash and recycling bins every time they have an empty one. Unfortunately, these bags belong in the trashcan more often than not. Since most of them are made from a few layers of material (usually some combination of aluminum and plastic), they tend to be too expensive for local recyclers to process.


How to confirm the pet food bag you buy from supermarket is recyclable or not?

You can check the symbol of the pouches, if the pet food packaging is with #4 code, which means it can be recycled with other plastic bags.

For pet food pouch, BioPack have new material solution: BioPE, a plastic made from sugar cane. This type of plant-based packaging can reduce source waste and help reduce carbon footprint.

Flexible packaging bag is better than can, Not only does flexible pouch packaging maximise your own space, but it also maximises the product in the package.

Flexible packaging pouch requires less material that results in a significantly higher product-to-package ratio than its rigid counterparts.
